Also, your language and activities section make me think hardcore Asian gunning for finance. Do you have any interests/hobbies that are different?

 

Yeah, sorry that was me .Uploaded a newer version with changes but still not sure how to add the interests. How far would be considered too far for interests? I want to add swimming and powerlifting. Would that be too off?

 

Swimming and powerlifting are fine.

Interests should be things that "interest you". Pretty straightforward, if you enjoy doing it and its not stupid, list it.

Example: Chess, Soccer, Reading

(Those aren't mine just an example)

Less verbose bullet points... trim ones that extend onto second line with only a few words. The resume is tough to skim as it stands. Slightly increase margins to make it easier on the eyes

I would put BBA in x and y (on one line), GPA:3.53

For job description I would just put summer analyst - M&A instead of Investment banking summer analyst... especially if the company is recognizable.

 

I would include something you have help a leadership position on. some club or organization that you have been a team leader, board member, etc

also, try to reduce the amount of info on some the experience....especially the last one. maybe consolidate some ideas. this will free up space for you leadership information. try a slightly smaller font
