"98th Percentile" not 'percentiles'
Might be helpful if you can get more relevant interests. Include any finance work experience if you have too.
IMO for some reason there seems to be too much space in your resume, might wanna do something about that.
Thanks. I updated the resume according to the useful comments received. Here is the updated resume: http://www.razume.com/documents/23970
Comments please?
Talk more about the company you founded. Talk more about everything, actually. Focus less on regular responsibilities and more on specific things/projects you completed/implemented/led/whatever. This makes more sense if you think about how ib works on individual projects/deals, and you'll want to try and conform your prior experience to that mindset.
good luck
