Please, throw shit into my CV.

Hello everyone, 

I am a first year Masters student at NHH (Norwegian School of Economics) specializing in Finance. I would really like to get an internship in Investment banking/Asset Management. I have had some experience as an executive assistant to CEO (you can read the description in attached CV) and had some relevant experience of founding a student club dedicated to trading. 

I am currently applying for summer internhips in major firms in the US, EMEA and APAC, but feel that quality of my CV is not that good. 

Could you, please, use your experience and suggest me on improving it? Maybe use some keywords or include other stuff. 

Thank you. 

Edit: Deleted CV for the sake of confidentiality. Soon will attach updated one.

Jesus Christ. Yeah this is bad. Format is bad. Bullet points (or rather wall of text) are bad.

Firstly, WSO IB template.

Secondly, don't write about soft skills, prove them in your experience. Anyone can write "technical analysis" on a CV (which is completely laughable btw and doesn't relate at all to the industries you're applying to, which further shows you don't really know what you're applying to). That whole skills section should be deleted.

Thirdly, no "profile" at the top. Doesn't add any value.

Fourthly, write bullet points. No one is going to read your paragraphs. Read this to figure out how to write bullet points https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/20140929001534-24454816-my-personal-form….
