Resume Advice

Hey everyone,

This is my first post and I hope this is the right forum to submit to? Not only would I be extremely appreciative of a resume roast, but I would also love to learn and know more about other career paths (PWM?) that may suit me. Should I make a different discussion elsewhere for that?

To give some backstory I just turned 24 and I am an aspiring financial planner. I know this may be a bit generic, but I love stocks, macroeconomics, and most importantly helping others and communicating with others. I don't mind analysis, but I'm not really passionate about it and can't see myself doing it for a career. I have a bit of (largely unrelated to finance) experience coming from a somewhat troubled yet privileged life, I was forced to dropped out of a pretty good university, work full time, and the rest is history. I re-enrolled in a low tier/nontarget state school and am working on getting my bachelors (for CFP), I was applying everywhere and didn't really get many offers. I am also working towards certifications (SIE/65). I ended up accepting a full time offer for a nice role w/ a F500 company for an account manager type position. My bullet points for my current role are kind of weak I feel, I can't really add much quantifiable metrics (too soon) and haven't put much work into my resume regarding that.

Thanks in advance!
