2009 Finance grad - Please critique my resume

Please critique my resume in a brutally honest manner. I have spent the last few months analyzing my options. It looks like, given my credentials, the best way to break into finance is:

1) Financial Consulting 2) corporate finance (potentially a F500 program, etc) 3) Boutique I-bank

Please let me know any and all of your (hopefully constructive) opinions. Thank you!

I would suggest trying to make it look less like a laundry list and focus more/expand on whatever roles you've had that relate most to the role you are applying (or want to apply) for. I doubt those going through the resumes will read every one of your entries just because there are too many.

 

It is impossible for me to read the entire thing because it is hidden behind the forum topics on the right. Make the company names bold, not italics.

Try to keep each point to one line and be as results oriented and concise as possible.
