Resume Being Sent Tomorrow, Please Review

A few of my contacts at BB's in NY have asked for my resume, and said that they would like it when this weekend is over. I spent some time rewording and editing things, and I think it is pretty decent. I would like to get some feedback from the WSO community and what you guys think about it. It is fairly time sensitive, so any advice will help. Thanks

make sure sub bullets still start with action verbs: "these included" --> "included", "investor profiles included" --> "included". double check your tenses, "which generates for fixed free..." is not past tense. Cut out all personal pronouns (i saw "their" and "these" used a few times). I would personally get rid of the MS Office and Excel proficiency at the bottom; its pretty much a given now-a-days.

besides for that, great resume, and good job on including the results from that you did.

good luck.

 

when you say "morningstar", what does that mean? Be sure you are going to be able to answer questions if interviewers ask you questions about its database, how you use the site, etc.

 

Yeah, I used Morningstar as a part of my previous internship. It was used mainly to compare old portfolio construction, with a new one that was made. Also was used to track their portfolio against the S&P or other indexes and show their current risk/reward statistic compared to what Morningstar thinks they should be based off of their risk profile, age, and long/short term financial goals.

That's really all I could say about it. You think they would ask questions on how it works, rather than what I just listed above? Not sure if I could really walk someone through a step by step process on how to get to the right areas in Morningstar to complete the function above. I just know that this is what we used to do that. I can try to research to refresh, but I do not have a Morningstar account currently. Given this, should I remove it?

You can leave it on there; really wouldn't matter too much, imo.

Strong resume. Consider consolidating your bullet points; the resume looks filled.

 

Thanks, you think it is too much text? I really want to put stress on the IB internship I am doing, that's why I put a lot of bullets, but I can see what you mean by it being too cluttered. Maybe take one out and refine the rest?
