Currently in valuation group at Big 4 looking to move to IB-Critique Resume

Hi guys,

Like the title says. Please take a look at my resume and don't hold back.

(Side note: I realize there is quite a bit of white space at the bottom - working on adding a 4th bullet but wanted to get some feedback so far.)

Thanks.

Bullet formatting: - I know this is nitty, but looks weird to me when your 1st level bullet is flush with where the text starts. Feel like there should be a small offset. - Third level bullets are too much from a formatting perspective. Maybe a hyphen and continue the text? - If your GPA is 3.4 I'd keep it off. I'd only show if 3.6+ - The relevant coursework you are showing is expected for someone with a minor in Business Admin (low impact). Either remove the courses or the minor. - My personal opinion: I wouldn't list conversational proficiency in any language. Not attractive from a recruiting standpoint. Unless you have business command, not helpful. Unless you are using this as conversational fodder, but it's very hit and miss.

Formatting is pretty good otherwise.

 

@tds2006" makes a good point about the grades.

Did you only do three deals or are these "Selected / Key Transactions"? Clarify.

Your bullet point about the $200MM Equity Offering doesn't make sense. How is a decline in earnings due to a reduction in trading volume? The two aren't related. Do you mean decline in price? Or does the company do trading (and volume doesn't refer to the company's own stock - confusing).Also, you should talk more about the deal. What was the use of proceeds?

For acquisition of hospital, who bought it and why? What was the strategic rational? I feel like some of those third level responsibilities should be 1st level where you talk about what you do in your role and then have a "Key Transactions" section with second level bullets and descriptions of the deals.

Nit: I'd relabel "Organizations" as "Leadership Roles"

What is "Fingerstyle Guitar"?
