Join your schools investment fund or something along those lines. If there is not one, try and create something. You need some type of experience to show that you have a genuine interest in finance.
First and foremost, your description of your audit job is too vague. the first sentence is good since you want that to be a strong overview of your job. However, for the rest of your description, you need to give specific examples of projects. These examples should include your goals, process, and results. The reason you want to be specific is that it actually gives the interviewer an idea of your experience instead of just vaguely telling them a job description.
Next, your bottom section looks a little weird. First of all, I think it looks a little "squished" to the left side of the resume and throws off the overall balanced. Second, your interests are too vague. Everyone likes music--are you especially passionate somehow? Do you collect records? Know a ton about a specific genre? I also don't like people saying they have Microsoft Office proficiency because without a certificate or something it doesn't mean anything.
Overall its a good resume. The way it is now, its not the formatting or writing that will keep you out of anywhere--it's simply a lack of experience.
@"FutureWaller" - thanks for the comment. unfortunately i have graduated already, would CFA be an option in that regard? b/c i am mulling taking L1 but the sentiment is generally that it's "not relevant" in IB
@"MJK" - thanks for your input. I have revised the audit experience section (slightly edits for anonymity). how does it look now?
edited version attached above...
Sorry I've been really slammed this week. I'll take a look soon
remove relevant coursework and remove/rework additional info section
professional experience should probably be on top
