Hello all,
Thanks for opening this! Please take the time to critique/rip-apart my resume on both content and formatting.
I do have some specific areas of concern:
1) "Sitting for CPA Examination in April-May 2012" good/bad?
2) I just started for a Big 4 in January 2013 in Transactions so I don't have much specific experience to write about. Do the bullets seem way too generic for an IB Resume?
3) Boutique experience: Did I present my experience there well?
4) Technical skills section. Good/bad?
Thanks again. I will start networking now to be in a good position for August/September 2013 FT recruiting.
What's up with your dates? Considering it's 2013 you can't sit for the CPA exam in 2012......
Also, you graduated in December 2012 and in your last semester you happened to be an IB analyst? and during August you were doing both a PWM and IB internship?
Anyway, that's what I noticed.
Thanks Ruskii
The CPA dates are a stupid mistake on my part. I meant April-May 2013, as in next month.
I was working at a boutique my last semester in school for about 30 hours/wk while I was enrolled in my last 2 classes. It was a very small shop (1 president/owner, and 4 analysts). Should I change the title to "IB Fall analyst" or "IB intern" to note that is was not full-time?
There was a period for about a month where I interned at both places for about 20 hours/wk at each. I had a great opportunity at the boutique but I was wrapping up some projects at the PWM firm. Should I "cut my experience short" to end my PWM internship in August to avoid confusion?
If you were an intern, I would put intern. Besides that the rest probably doesn't matter.
Bullet point under Consumer Products LBO. Think you meant "prepared".
