Possible Trading Resume, Target School

Hi everybody,

Recently I have been attempting to find a field where I could apply my quantitative skills and thought trading might be a viable option.

If possible could you both: 1. give me tips on how to make my resume more geared towards trading. 2. If you think it's too difficult for me to get a trading interview, point me in the direction of other jobs in the business world with a lot of math involved. (outside of actuaries).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1) In order to be considered you need some sort of financial experience, try to contact firms in the Boston area (BB PWM shops, boutique trading firms, PE shops anything relevant to high finance)

CV things:

instead of School Tuition write School tuition, just looks weird with both capitalized

under vol exp the lets get ready, your first bullet point is in present tense, should be in past
