Taking a quick look:
Spell utilized correctly
AI not Ai
Spell out numbers under 10
Potential acquisition candidates is repetitive
Be consistent with how you refer to things billions/bn
You need to reword a lot of your bullets there is no flow to them
Also some of your bullets just don't seem believable. I for one doubt you helped a VP come up with an investment thesis for an entire fund. GPs formulate fund wide strategies, not interns (I'd call bull in an interview)
Cheers for the feedback. Yeah I don't mean to say I helped him come up or formulate, I did a lot research work to substantiate his ideas and also created the investor presentation he will use using fund IIIs format. The entire fund is $1 bn and will invest in multiple sectors, only a % will go to cp and to india which is what i focussed on. Is using "composition" misleading?
Hi, btw isn't it utilised in the UK. Wonder if HR/ care about these nuances (american vs british spelling) - analyzed vs analysed - organized vs organised - modeling vs modelling
Yes, I've changed them to british spellings. Cheers.
Are you looking to apply to IBD? If so remove Trading society. Also scrap certifications and add languages that you speak.
I wouldn’t say 5bn under assets. I would either say 5bn assets or 5bn AUM.
There are some typos - ie its either during A roadshow or during roadshows. But during roadshow makes no sense. In the same sentence you are also missing 2 ‘the’. Already fix that all over your CV and lets see what it looks like.
Yes I will be recruiting for IB On my CV I have just mentioned the firm's name, they're a strong player in south east asia. I added 5bn for context here, do you recommend I add 5bn AUM on CV too?
Is this correct now - * Assisted a Vice President in the composition of an investment thesis pitch deck on the consumer products sector for investor presentation during roadshows for Fund IV (Target size – $1 bn)
Also, should I cap the first letter of the sectors make it Consumer Products Sector and so on?
It’s your judgement to figure weather if I as an IB analyst with have ever heard of this fund (hint likely not). So yes I would include this.
Re your second question still not there mate. Its either for an/the investor presentation/investor presentations. And don’t need to capitalize words, but if you do be consistent. I also would not say pitch deck. I would say drafted the investment thesis alongside the VP for XYZ
In the future better anonymize your unis. Can tell which ones you went to by the groupings. Especially obvious with the MSc.
What was your gmat btw?
Sure, thanks. Didn't do gmat
Dude who cares, yes in most cases you can figure out who people are, as long as its not 100% obvious. What are you going to do if you figured who he was? Add him on linkedin?
Obviously I don't care, but given he did anonymize it I'm taking it that he cares at least somewhat.
Also not sure why some people on this website are obsessed with trying to find the person who has posted their resume, rather than giving them constructive feedback? Regardless, all undergrad/postgrad groupings are broadly regarded in the same light
Thanks for the feedback. I have made the changes and posted an updated version please check it out. Cheers
It's definitely getting there
I concur with all of the advice you received above. I would suggest replacing your "Extra-Curricular & Leadership" header with simply "Leadership". Writing "Predicted Honors: Pending" seems odd and doesn't add significant value in my opinion (though this may be the convention across Europe and if so leave it). I would also recommend expanding on your mentorship role as it currently is only one line in length and throws off the balance of the page, especially with other engagements being at least two in length and your roles being placed adjacent to the company names rather than below (understand you likely did this to save space).
Thanks for the feedback, have posted an updated version using your feedback. Let me know what you think. Have kept the header Extra-Curricular & Leadership simply because I'm not sure if the daily newsletter would fall under leadership.
