Feedback on CV for 2018 SA in M&A or PE

Hello,

I would be applying to BBs and PE funds in London for their 2018 summer internship schemes for positions in M&A and corporate PE.

Background: - Currently pursuing a masters oriented towards corp fin from a target school in France. As a part of the programme, did a 6-month stint in the corporate strategy department of a CAC40 company with a focus on corp dev and currently interning in the real estate PE team of a BB.

Please suggest how I could further improve this CV for the positions I target. In addition, do you think that an internship in real estate PE could make it difficult for me to shift to one in corp PE or corp M&A?

I am worried that applying for corp M&A/ corp PE internships after the RE experience would make me appear confused. However, what I am really trying to do is to get the broadest possible view of the business of making investments/ doing acquisitions from different perspectives (company, PE fund, bank) during my masters so as to make an informed career choice. Your views in this regard are also welcome.

Looking forward to your comments!

Note: - WSO does not let me upload the link to my resume since I do not have enough points. So, please add drive(dot)google(dot)com/ before the following and then hit search: open?id=0ByDUFKfflTxcYU85UW5aMHhXUkk
