CV and Cover letter review
Hello, I am working on finding summer internship in Europe and have made a basic sample of a CV. I would adjust every CV according to specific position. All I know is that finance field is very competitive and I have no idea where I stand, i know that I am well below average, because I am from a non-target European uni in Denmark, speaking Lithuanian, English and limited Danish. Due to the national dealflow being a key driver for most banks, I have a hard time to be considered for any Nordic investment bank and asset management position.
I would like to get an idea on how likely am I to land summer internship in UK/IE or anywhere where English would be corporate language. What should I change, is it even worth it for me to try send my CV/cover letter around or am I just trying to follow a broken dream? Please be honest, thank you :)

Thanks in advance :)
Your hobbies are longer than your work experience
Haha :D I will definitely trim that part. Do You think I should delete hobby descriptions completely, or just trim a little or turn it into bullet points ( I think it would make it even bigger, but easier to read). Thanks for the input though haha
I feel a strong sense of your passion for this work, so bravo on that. You tell an intriguing story on how you learned to manage your own wealth at an early age, and the future risk-return activities you parlayed those learnings into. However, both the cover letter and CV feel too wordy to me. I'd work on trimming/consolidating sentences and paragraphs, to try and say the same thing as efficiently as possible. Keep in mind that hiring managers are reviewing bundles of these applications, and you don't want to wear them out, while they're reading yours.
Also, can you write about any specific accomplishments in your CV's work experience? I see a lot of "conducted research and analysis" and "prepared reports" activities. Can you talk about specific outputs?
I have also thought about that, but wasn't really sure on how should I handle it. I appreciate your input, thanks! :)
Sounds alright to me but I think it could use a proofread for the grammar, spelling and a couple of missing words. I would list them out but I’m getting off at the next stop lol.
