Help Review My Resume?
Hey guys,
I'm a student at a target school, looking for a summer internship/permanent gig in finance or consulting. People from my school probably would be able to ID me, but I don't really care. Revamped my resume and was wondering if I could get some feedback on it.
Thanks!

was wondering why you didn't stay on or do part time with the financial derivatives department.
The biggest thing that stands out to me is the inconsistency of the formatting. 1. The position names under activities stick out past the heading and are not lined up with the position names under experience 2. The position organizations under activities do not all line up properly 3. Dates for experience but not dates for activities 4. Marketing intern is written in the present tense (I know there is debate about this but it just looks odd to me) 5. Positions under experience are italicized yet the dates aren't
Yeah I know I'm being picky, but reviewers are looking for any reason to get rid of your resume to minimize the number they have to go through, and formatting inconsistencies that stand out make a good excuse, especially because they're easy to fix.
Only thing I can see is that
Yes, agree with earlier post - put times on your activities.
Also, just put everything in past tense. It's just more consistent and the reader can tell from the time period whether you're still working on that activity or job regardless of present/past tense of the bullet points.
Thanks for the advice guys, I'll make the appropriate changes.
