Need Resume help tonight! IB Analyst
Hey,
I need to submit this resume tomorrow 6am EST for an investment banking analyst position. I already have my current resume posted on the site and I know that they are going to begin sifting through them soon b/c I know the MD. It doesn't have to be PERFECT, but this updated resume is a FAR cry from my last one, I decided to really emphasize the CFA challenge as far as the financial modeling, etc and delete some of my other non-relevant stuff.
I am weary about all the coursework and know that I probably shouldn't include the MS Office. I may put public speaking/presentations b/c we had to do a public speaking class for our MBA.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Remove Objective
Take out the "/4.0" and is your GPA combined into 1 as in you don't have a separate BBA and MBA GPA?
Bring Relevant Coursework and Honors into your education as bullet points, not separate sections.
For relevant coursework, remove any intro courses - I would probably just go with: Managerial Finance (MBA), Business Analysis (MBA), Money and Banking (BBA) and Finance and Cost Accounting (BBA) - maybe one other investment/real estate course if that's your field of interest
Leadership Award and Honor Society are nice honors - unless something interesting came of the Speaker, then drop it.
Align your dates to the right to add separation
Since so many of your bullet points run onto a 2nd line, you might want to justify
Your bullet points for Leadership have solid context, but you can definitely trim them down a bit to free up some space. Additionally, you performed all of this modeling, research, valuation, etc - what were some of the results/impact of your work
For your first work experience, you can remove some of the bullet points and clean up the others - focus on what you did, how you did it and what it meant to the team. You can get rid of the Assisted bullet points and the Prepared... bullet point unless you can add some value to them. Additionally, the Maintaining a database bullet point needs to be expanded upon as well, but you can get rid of the assisted new web site part unless you contributed something valuable to it.
For Skills, change it to Skills and Hobbies and give you 1 bullet for skills and 1 for hobbies. For skills, get rid of financial modeling, keep VBA and include something else other than Office (if you don't have anything else, then leave Office in).
I know there's a lot here, but right now your resume is unnecessarily cluttered - clean it up and punch it up and you'll be in good shape. Let me know if you have any other questions.
i think you should also be consistent with your month/years... if you're going to say December 2010, then consistently use that... or else use 12/10
thank ya'll sooo much for the comments!! I will post a new version shortly
didn't know you can get analyst position after a MBA....
