Junior for Summer Trading Internship
Not on the resume is the extensive use of excel at my current job (work exclusively in it). Also, in the analyst position, it is through a school program, where we meet with management for the company and talk to other industry professionals. Also, in the prep for the Rotman, should I somehow mention the stuff I am learning? (Binomial option pricing models, Black Scholes...). Tear it up!
I guess you can put languages that you have "basic" knowledge of but I don't see how an employer would any utility in that. The Skills and interest sections can be condensed and combined.
Skills, Certifications and Interests
-Certifications: Microsoft Certified in Excel and Access, Bloomberg Certified in Equities, Fixed Income, Commodities, and FX
-Languages: Basic Understanding of Chinese and German (Honestly this seems useless)
-Interests: Former Golf Team Captain (10 Handicap), Basketball, Fantasy Baseball, Reading
WTF is up with the bulletpoints for the "Stockbroker Intern" Job, make them align with the rest of your document. I feel that the formatting for the 2nd job is best so fix the other two to line up.
The verbs for the second job are weak and the job/whatever you did seems more unimpressive than it should. I suggest changing all points for this. For example say "Used financial modeling and valuation to analyze X Petroleum Company" I have no idea what you did but this is a guide line and specific techniques are good to mention (but don't overdo it)
QUANTIFY SOME RESULTS! None of your bullet point have any numbers over that of "3rd place" and "450 interns". Did you increase profits or efficiency by X amount, did you do anything that could be converted to a concrete number (estimates?)
The Education section seems like you are trying to use up space. Is that the same University for both entries? If not get rid of the old one. If it is I would suggest:
Education
X University_______________________________________________________________City, State - Overall GPA: 3.77 X School of Business________________________________________________________Expected 2011 BS in Management (focus on Finance and Accounting) - Program GPA: 3.73 Y College____________________________________________________________________City, State BS in Economics________________________________________________________Expected 2011
Yeah, for some reason when I uploaded it the file's formatting messed up, they are aligned and look good on the actual resume. As for the education, it's the same school, but I'm pursuing two different degrees, but with three different majors(Management degree with Finance and Accounting major and and Economics degree). Should I simplify it and just say that I am triple majoring in the business school?
If it were my resume i would take off that you have a 10 handicap, IMO it distorts the fact that you were the captain.....
Wait, what's that small bullet point about math club?
Your entire resume sells you as someone much more fit/interested to work in another sector of finance, and then you have that small bullet point about trading/math club.
Ummm you went to Tulane which is far from a target for any real finance job. Perhaps pursue a Master's at a reputable school?
Or just bust your nuts and be one of the few non-target kids that lands a spot in a "real" finance job
