Driving a stick shift up Mt. Everest?

Hey all!

I am looking to see if I have any leg to stand on in trying to make a move out of customer oriented roles into more of a finance/ER role. If you wouldn't mind taking a look at my resume and providing any feedback or possible routes to approach this from. At this point I am assuming my only chance is to pass the CFA - to which I have signed up for the L1 exam in December.

I live just far enough outside Greater Phila and NYC areas to where commuting into either city for an internship or SA job is out of the question unfortunately. Although, if I was able to land an entry level gig I would be able to relocate fairly easily.

Be as blunt as you see fit. I know the challenge I am presented with hence the topic title lol, but ER is some thing I could really see myself enjoying no matter what size firm it is with.

Much appreciated fella's!
