No mercy please!!!

Deo et Patriae asianmonkee:

Hi all,

Have attached my resume and would appreciate some feedback as I am going on an exchange studies and considering to apply for an internship during my time there.
Main queries are
1) Should I put CFA as a separate line item under Education?
2) I have bloomberg essentials and dealmaven certification, should I create a separate line in skills and interest section and place them in?
3) Should I put cousera courses I have completed from Ivies in?
4) Should I remove the last work experience (F100 finance) and instead add another bullet point to the other 2 work experience?
5) If I am looking to enter Asset Management/hedge fund, what else (certs, internships, courses) should I consider to enhance my CV?
6) Should I leave out the incoming research analyst role?

Thank you and feel free to annihilate.

Under your experience, you have "Bog 4 Advisory"... I'm assuming you mean "Big 4 Advisory"

Go through your resume again very carefully. Lack of attention to detail can be a serious deal breaker.

Hi Deo,

Thanks for pointing that out. I actually meant Big 4 Advisory and did it mistakenly as I was trying to replace the firm;s name. In addition to that, are there any other details or areas that you feel I missed out or could improve on. Appreciate your help and advice.

Flake

I don't like "Culinary Appreciation". Makes it sound like some sort of fetish. Like putting "Feet Worship" in your interests section.

Alright, will heed your advice and take it out. Just wondering, are there any 'general interest' that goes well with the finance crowd? I considered putting drinking but I thought it's better to leave that out. Do you think I should just leave the whole interest section out or will I be better served just leaving it there (bar the culinary appreciation)? Thanks for your help once again
