Corporate Banking Resume Advice

Hi all,

I'm about 6 months into my first FT role in Corporate Banking and have gotten a decent amount of experience so far. I've been thinking about keeping my resume updated as I progress, I'm not entirely sure how to present my experience.

I know that in IB, it's standard to highlight deal experience, but I'm not sure whether the same approach applies to corporate banking.

For context on my career goals, in the short to medium term, ideally PC at a smaller firm, upwards to a BB, Levfin, or ABF, hoping this gives a better idea of what I'm tailoring towards.

  • Completed formal credit training covering financial analysis, spreading, underwriting, laon documentation, and banking products for companies ranging from $XXMM - $XXB in annual revenue.
  • Underwrote $XXXMM in committed credit facilities supporting leveraged buyouts, refinancings, and recapitalizations for companies ranging $XXMM - $XXB in EBITDA. 
  • Supported XX portfolio managers in managing commercial loan portfolio including amendments, credit monitoring, covenant compliance, agent bank interactions, and client calls.
  • Assisted and independently drafted credit memos for prospects and current clients, evaluating creditworthiness through financial analysis, cash flow projections, industry analysis, sensitivity, and proposed credit/covenant structures.
  • Developed and pitched an internal tool to automate chart generation and preliminary underwriting analysis directly from financial spreads, standardizing financial presentations and commentary across X coverage.
  • Developed and pitched an internal tool easing portfolio management monitoring tracking past 3 year client interactions, transactions, and metrics.

In short: a couple questions here:

  1. Highlighted Transactions: Do I structure my resume similar to an IB resume with a highlighted transaction, deal type, and my specific contribution?
  2. Technical projects: Are these worth highlighting or would it be better spent highlighting additional underwriting and deal experience?
  3. Previous experiences: Do I keep my internships and college leadership experiences? How about highlighting any involvement/titles I have from my current banks internal orgs (clubs basically). College ones are relatively relevant, internally not so much.

Would appreciate any advice!

Thanks!
