Here is the truth: -Everybody hates if someone posted a resume with the thread's title help capitalized. -IB, mutual fund and fund accounting internships all require/look for different skills. You will need to tailor your resume for all three.
Your spacing in the skills, interests and awards section is different from the rest. There are many more formating errors, but you can find them on your own. Did you not look at the resume before posting it here?
Generally, your bullet points should be what you did, how you did it and the result of it. Your bullet points don't do that and are way to short.
You are a rising junior, get rid of high school stuff.
Uni shadowing is not volunteering.
You are a finance major, I don't think you need to list any courses.
Put the class ranking and gpa on one line.
Overall: Lots of work to do, especially when it comes to your work experiences.
Thanks for your input, I'll make those adjustments. I can see the formatting error in my skills section, but could you point out the other areas if you don't mind.
In Europe, secondary school grades are still important, I often see job ads for grad positions requiring certain amounts of points in high school.
Again your right about the bullet points, I was trying to fit my resume on one page, and work experience needs to improve any advice? I almost certainly won't get any BB with those grades so I'm looking at Middle markets and funds.
Thanks again kinghongkong!
You can use word to make your formatting more coherent. It will be easier for you that way to find any spacing and formatting errors.
I guess it is different in Ireland. My bad.
I already gave you my advice on your bullet points: "Generally, your bullet points should be what you did, how you did it and the result of it. Your bullet points don't do that and are way to short."
Hi again
I've made the corrections you mentioned to my bullet points, thanks to you its looking better!
No need to cut it short. You have lots of space that is currently empty. You should be easily able to elaborate on what you did.
I like it a lot more!
That being said, I think your bullet points should either take up to 1 line or at least 1.5 lines, but that's just personal preference.
The formatting is really ugly, but that's just my opinion.
Unless you are fluent in French, and could speak to French clients in their mother tongue about business, it doesn't add any value.
I don't mind if you have any suggestions on how I could format it better, I actually got this template online. I'm thinking of moving my details at the top to the left maybe....
