“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
Not sure if you should post the real firms you worked for/ university. I found you on Linkedin in like 2 seconds! Otherwise, I think your resume is really good. Possibly add something that shows a time that you've went against the grain? It's had to articulate on a resume.
@TommyGunn" I just switched out the resume with different names haha. Thanks for that. What do you mean exactly about showing going against the grain?
Equity research is all about challenging the status quo, giving a different opinion than the rest of the market, right? For example if You're researching underpriced stocks, therefore challenging everyone else's view on the price of a stock. would be good to show you're already got these skills to your prospective employers.
You're resume is boring. Make your bullet point more result oriented e.g. " Present equity recommendations in front of other analysts and give fundamental reasoning behind the decision" WHAT RECOMMENDATIONS? WHAT REASONING?... Everything should be in past tense, since you're done with all your opportunities. The format sucks, looks at the Mergers and Inquisitions template. No one really cares about your relevant coursework. Make sure you can actually conduct a WACC & DCF analysis, you may get drilled on questions for example "what debt rate would use in a WACC analysis: past borrowing rates, current market rates, future predicted market rates" "what is a reasonable growth rate? " "Whats wrong with using equity value/EBITDA as a key metric". If you can't answer these, you'll set yourself up for failure. DONT ADD "CFA CANDIDATE" if you haven't registered for the exam, current CFA holders will try to burn you.
I wouldn't put CFA level 1 candidate even if you're registered for the exam.
Also, I wouldn't "anything competitive" under your interested. Just screams tool bag too me.
