keep all bullets to 1 line each, as motivates people to actually read them. you may need to go down font size by .5 or 1.0
add AUM and deal size range targeted (eg. eur50-100mn) for pe experience
missing title for madrid pe intern
add deal size range for sell side exp
good luck with recruiting
Of all the words for you to misspell, how ironic that you botched the word "English"
i lol'd sbd
Education:
Personal preference - I'd put full stops after each letter of "B.A." and use an ampersand instead of the word "and" between Economics / Management
Put your college down before "University of Oxford" (e.g. Balliol College, University of Oxford)
I also wouldn't have your degree as a separate bullet point, I'd include it as a subheading in italics - again, personal preference
Put a comma after the month for your time periods (e.g. September, 2020 - June, 2023)
Put a colon after "Predicted" (e.g. Predicted: First Class Honours)
Why not write your A-levels out like, "Mathematics (A*), Further Mathematics (A*)..." - cleaner, in my opinion (if you're going to keep it as it, use an Oxford comma at least)
Also, I assume you studied Ancient Greek A-level rather than the modern language - suggest amending accordingly
Work experience:
Typo in the title (just say, "Work Experience" instead of "Work and Experience" - again, use an ampersand if choosing not to change)
Spaces between brackets (e.g. "blah_/_blah")
So many random capitals...
General note - sometimes you use full stops at the end of bullet points, sometimes you don't... My preference is for don't
Separate out Evercore and Lazard experience
Put locations on the right hand side under the periods of experience, rather than under the title
Leadership experience:
Don't call it leadership experience - call it "Extracurricular Experience" or something like that
Skills, activities, and interests:
Misspelt "English"
Stop capitalising random nouns
19th century supercars... See this from Wikipedia: "The Lamborghini Miura, produced from 1966–1973, is often said to be the first supercar" - do you mean 20th century? (19th century is the 1800s)
Take watches off of your interests, looks pretentious
Would be curious to see what your CV looks like after these changes, so please re-post if you feel comfortable doing so
Best of luck...
Basically, once we've dealt with the structural / stylistic issues, we can look at the actual content

So you have offers for Evercore/Lazard but they do not expire - confused
Troll CV, Evercore have their conversion in September and Lazard haven't given out conversion yet.
Weird how it was pitched to GS Executives too
clearly fake. no chance they "crafted" a merger model during a spring week.
and somehow they have a time machine cause they've already done their internship starting in June and successfully "brought a firm to market"
I can't believe I was so blind... I am shamed
