Work Exp: For the Merchandising one reword the bullet points into something more related to finance/business. Use a stronger starting word than "scanned" and "gained." Do that for all starting words. Tech skills: take out MS Excel because the interviewer knows more excel than you and you're inviting them to try to stump you. Interests: Take out "investing & trading" and "reading financial news" unless you're ready to be grilled on it. Add more non-finance interests. Also, quantify your resume. The first 2 work exp, don't have any numbers in them.

Good resume for a freshman. This won't be the thing stopping you from getting a pwm internship.

edit: if you have a decent SAT or ACT score, add it to the GPA line.
