Help Needed: Sophomore. Please Critique!

Hey guys,

I'm currently a sophomore at a semi-target/target school in the Northeast. I've been trying my luck at applying to whatever I can find. However, I haven't gotten a single interview and by now I'm freaking out about finding something for the summer. Other than things like my lower GPA, can you guys please critique my resume and give me some advice on what I should be doing?I know some of my descriptions are weak and I was hoping for some advice on that too.

I really appreciate any feedback I get. Thanks guys

I like the format, not the "traditional" one myself and many people use, but still looks good.

Do you have a major GPA? If it is higher than list it also.

Deans list, honor roll, scholarships, grants, anything? If so list them. List relevant courses. Expand and beef up your education.

Your internship exp. You explain to mean what a wealth management intern does and what you did, but you don't tell me anything you achieved during this time. Maybe you didn't do anything outside the ordinary (that's fine), but if you did, include that. Special projects, increased revenue, brought in xyz percent increase in assets, something. Action orientated.

Resume looks ok. You are on a good start. Good luck!
