Resume Critique - Career Changer
Hello,
I'm looking to break into the finance industry and I need some resume advice.
Currently, I'm working at a large aerospace/defense company focusing on operations/manufacturing (first thing listed in experience). I graduated from an ivy and the few blocked out titles are engineering focused teams with leadership experience in while in ugrad.
From what I'm seeing so far, it looks like my format doesn't match all the others... is that a auto ding? I like the way it looks though.
I've been doing a fair amount of self-study and have become knowledgeable on financial topics (studying for the CFA)... do you think I can write something about that in the Related Skills section? Personally, I think it's risky.
I'll upload my cover letter in a bit, here's my resume...
Here's the cover letter...

Very nice, I actually have an Industrial Engineering background and do basically the same stuff, but i did not go to a target school...Im looking into changing careers.
Im waiting to see what guys say about yours. Good Luck!
Anybody?
Fyi, a trader at Goldman told me to take off "poker" as one of my interests, it might be frowned upon.
Yea take it off.
Formatting looks fine to me. Obviously a bit different but not an auto ding. If you need more space reformat it so the margins are used more efficiently otherwise looks good
take off "strong reasoning and analytical skills"
