Commercial Banking to Corporate Banking Resume

So I'm looking to make the move from middle market commercial banking to corporate banking. I followed the M&I resume format but I am looking for any feedback. Do I need to move towards a resume that highlights certain transactions? More result or quantitative oriented?

Thanks in advance.

You didn't follow the M&I format, but that's fine because it sucks anyways.

–education first –education first –GPA: 3.15 / 4.00 (two decimals) –all bullet points should go at least three-quarters of the way across –Name & heading in smallcaps –put the name of the bank for the second position, even if its the same –top margin tooooo big –font size at bottom is larger, make it smaller –phone number comes after name – email on next line –school address in top left corner, labeled in smallcaps with first address line level with phone number –permanent address in top right corner, similarly formatted. (this is useful info and takes up space and allows more room for real stuff) –don't indent bullet points, they should be level with left edge of text –you must be in some clubs or something, right? –golf and history are not proper nouns –put 2 pts of space after the headings –put less space elsewhere, full line breaks are bad –dates should be Aug Dec etc. –maybe organize your bullet points better, cut down or use sub-bullets it they can be logically arranged. there are tooooo many to scan quickly. –too much white space –education first

 

I appreciate the response and will make some edits. Do note that I have been out of school for two years now. I believe at this point education should go below experience?
