Resume critique - 09 grad looking for a job

http://www.razume.com/documents/14965

I used the M&I template, and am seeking a job in finance. Preference was IB, but without relevant experience / internships, am looking for a job in general at this point.

Please critique resume.

Also, any suggestions based on resume for what types of finance positions I might actually have a shot at, would be appreciated.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Might want to look at making a start in PWM if you like working with clients, seems like you'd be suited for that.

Going back to school may be a good idea too.

 

Thanks, m.c.trader.

I'm actually not really working with clients (by that I mean not to the extent of a sales job). I'd like a position that deals with financial information, research / analysis, modeling, and things of that nature. I like working with financial data and am interested in that type of work, but am not sure where I'm going wrong when it comes to applying for positions (whether it's IB, non-IB corporate finance, business development, etc.).

 

@fairfieldmonkey: UMich isn't non-target, well, at least Ross is semi-target/target. But - UMich liberal arts has some alumni on the Street; network!

Doesn't Ross offer a master's in accounting program? You should apply to that, beg and plead your ass to get in, and then work like a mofo and be a top student and get interviews to BBs.

Otherwise, do PWM.
