Crucify my CV LDN SA 2021

Are you being intentionally non specific with your African language because you posted this online, or is that how you actually put it in your final resume?

Actually have it like that, cause tbh those languanges dont have any business values, but can cite them if need be

Will try to give you my opinion

• Formatting needs to be improved, lines are not aligned (just look at the dates, too messy), same with the names of your jobs, not aligned.
• Dont like muych the format its clean but I prefer to read traditional formats (line starting with the headings)
• Look at your first bullet for LBS you are missing the comma. 10,000 pounds
• Shouldnt put in bold your gmat and quant in bold, they are not nothing too impressive for IBanks as they recruit MBAs with much better results
• I am lacking some more info from your overall GPAs at that MsC, what do you expect for tha tlast year?
• Regarding to Pictet ER I would just say that it was cancelled due to Covid (remember that you are aiming for 2021 SA, I wouldnt like to see that you are shopping around with an ER gunning for IB
• Bullet points for GS are not punchy, did you receive the offer for SA21? Needs to be something that I can see in 2 seconds here
• JP Morgan´s first bullet makes no sense, would rephrase it
• Same with Research intern, you are boiling the ocean there, no actionable info, you are not quantifying either your results and when you do (last bullet), you are not explaining that what you did was benchmarking budgets (which is something that is closer to our job in IB sometimes)

Overall most bullets are too descriptive and are not showing me the skills I am looking for in an analyst / intern. Try to give it another try, you have some good stuff that could help you to land a SA this year, but both format and content needs to be improved so when I read your CV I can see your drive for finance and your skills.

And please do specify which languages you speak, you may impress me if you are able to speak 5 languages, even if I dont know them, but be careful with lying, I have seen a bunch of people geting in trouble for lying about languages and then whenever they got staffed in projects requiring fluency in such languages showing they had no idea about them (which HR should check tho..)

You’ve got a GS summer offer why are you recruiting?

Applications for masters programs in 2021 havent opened yet, how have you already got an offer to study at LBS?????

I think it's gonna be in 2021
