I'd remove the word "Ancillary" and replace it with "Relevant".
I'd assume you know Microsoft office as well, so definitely add that to your list of skills.
Everything looks good, and I think you'll be set for FT recruiting.
Little things, typically people's addresses are on their resume. I'd add your GPA/major GPA unless they're under 3.5.
MS Office I did not put microsoft office since it is expected of every MBB candidates to be extremely proficient at it which I believe I am. I thought most people found it dull and borderline stupid to have MS office on resume skills for IB or consulting. Please let me know if I am wrong on that.
Address This is current version of my resume which i just whipped up. My address is currently different from my usual address as I am in a different city for MBB internship. I usually have my address on right top corner. THank you.
I will change anciliary as even I think that is too pedantic...lol
GPA It is under 3.5, thus removed from my resume. hell its under 3.0
It may also seem dull and borderline stupid to put English on a resume skill for IB or consulting unless you're applying in a foreign country. Just be consistent. The white space on the bottom bothered me a bit, but to be honest, it's fine.
I forgot to mention that you should also add interests on the bottom, I think it's always a nice conversation and one of the few things I look closely into.
are people still putting "MS Office" on resumes? cringe
Definitely add some interests, people want to see what you do outside of the workforce.
bump
How did you get MBB with a sub 3.0 gpa?
Agreed.
agreeing to what exactly..?
ridiculous amount of internships at second tier consulting (think Deloitte, booz, Accenture etc), fortune 100, startups, etc
also networking helped a little but wasnt too big a deal for me as i was applying in home country (hkg, singapore, korea, japan etc, developed asian country)
Fix the alignments of your dates. The right side of the page has an inconsistent look.
will do country i am in right now uses A4 instead of Letter. must have fucked up alignment there somewhere. thanks
Considering you're at MBB with a sub 3.0 I'd drop all plans of FT recruiting and focus all my energy on getting a return offer and then accept it ASAP.
