Resume Critique - Canadian Chimp seeking Internships
As resume (imgur link) below implies, no real finance experience. Interested in ER/PE/AM/HF/IB in that order. Please critique and don't go easy on me! Original: imgur.com/a/uSBpN2w Edit 1: imgur.com/a/hjaVi09 Removed subbullets, edited main bullets, created "stock market competitions" entry, "modified skills and interests", among others. Took 4 hours
What year are you and what's your GPA? You have strong experience, though I personally would shorten your poker blurb and talk more about your finance competitions more as they are more relevant. also would recommend shortening your coursework to one line.
I'm in third year. I have my graduation year, and I mention I'm in third year in my cover letters. I think you're right though, should mention that - probably gives me an advantage over younger years just at face value. GPA is omitted intentionally - it is below 3.0. Reddit source Sheets and Giggles said to omit anything below 3.3, which I think I will stand by. How would you elaborate on the stock market competitions? I chose the poker section over the stock market competitions because it demonstrates long-run, replicable skill (imo). I have been playing consistently and profitably for a long time, where as stock market competitions last a span of 2-3 months, and doesn't seem all that replicable to me. I have shortened the coursework to one line; it does seem gratuitous to have two.
