How screwed am I...? - Applying to finance related jobs
So I've been applying to finance related jobs the past few weeks (analyst, GWM, AM, etc) and I haven't heard back from a single company.
Is there something wrong with my resume? Graduating next month and I'd like to have a job before I graduate so I need as much help as I can get

To be honest, I have a feel it's going to be an uphill struggle for you. You might want to consider either pursuing a graduate program (master's) or delaying graduation.
