International Masters Student applying for London 2024 internships / FT roles

Please roast my CV and give me a reality check of what I should be targeting.

While I have almost 2 years of experience in FP&A, I am ready to start over from the very beginning and apply to internships/off-cycles if that gives me a chance to break into any FO role in London. I will be starting my masters this September (think LSE/LBS).

Few comments:

- Fix alignment of the bullet points on "British Multinational bank". They are not on the same vertical point as the rest. 

- Extremely weak bullet point. What is the value added to your first bullet point in "Non-bank Financial Institution"? Same thing with the next experience where you wrote "taught kids Maths & English". Please develop your bullet points.

- Last bullet point on "British Multinational bank" is crap.

- Why are gaps between each section not consistent?

- Why do you have months on some dates but not all?

- No need to go overboard with your relevant coursework in your BSc.

- Average Leadership, nothing stands out 

- Keep all decimal points consistent
