Hi All,
I am helping a friend fix up his/her resume. The GPA is not high, ~2.5. However, the resume will not be for any IB/S&T spots...more for Operations/BO Finance/Whatever.
I am wondering if I should have him/her leave the GPA on with a 2.5 or get rid of it entirely.
I ask because I know some banks just straight up toss it out without a GPA, but a 2.5 would probably be a red flag as well. Some experience would be a Wealth Management gig at Merrill.
Again, this isn't for FO spots, so I am assuming it wouldn't be AS bad regardless.
Thanks in advance
Try putting on his major GPA if it is higher. Honestly I wouldn't put it on as I am looking at my schools career website at BO positions and they require a 3.0 minimum. With a GPA that low I would take anything I can get.
Rephrase the question..."Should one blatantly list something on their resume that is a weakness?"
The answer is easy...No.
Eligendi perspiciatis modi nesciunt nesciunt. Dolor corporis asperiores et praesentium qui. Voluptas dignissimos quo ipsam quasi.
Quo qui quis necessitatibus error atque aut ut error. Sit incidunt tempore animi vitae.
