IB CV For the UK part II

I have updated the CV based on your comments. Skills is deliberately unfilled because I will tailor it depending on the job description but the rest will be an ever present.

Had a quick look over it, and will look at it more in-depth later. For now, a few things. Firstly, absolutely remove English from your language skills section- you're not adding any value to the firm by speaking English in the UK (if you can't speak any other languages proficiently, remove the language section). Secondly, your Investment Society entry doesn't seem to have an associate date/time period- add that in.

Finally, I (and anyone else on here) will be able to help you out a lot more if you provide us with some more information about the position you're applying to. Are you applying for a S&T position at an investment bank, or are you applying for an investment banking spot? Your resume is very S&T-leaning (much more so than IB), right up to the fact that you're pursuing a Masters in Finance, which is a technical, S&T-leaning degree more than IB. If you're looking for an IB position, looking at your resume the first thing I'd ask you as an interviewer is why IB, and given what you've put on your resume you'd better have a pretty convincing reason for IB over S&T. Let the forums know which position you're applying for, and we can tailor your achievements/resume accordingly. If it's IB, you'll need to change some stuff to present your experience differently- for example, I have a research background but was able to present it in a way that allowed me to secure an IB gig. Although research is closer to IB than S&T, you'd most likely be able to do the same.
