Resume Review - 1 response after 50+ applications.

Not sure whats going on here. Starting to lose hope in this whole situation. If theres anything that stands out as ridiculous or irrelevent I would love to know. My past 2 internships were the only responses I got from any company and I have applied to over 50 places each time.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it.

This should work. Let me know if there's an issue!

Thank you!

Nothing jumped out at me as either ridiculous or irrelevant and while potentially a little crowded the formatting looked fine and there were no glaring errors that I spotted...are the positions you're applying for relevant to your background? I'd also explore networking with the companies prior to dropping a resume in a portal (black hole) as a way to yield more responses.

 

So here is something I just noticed. Would you suggest removing the JP Morgan shadow and replacing it with work I have done at Top 3 ivy through their entrepreneurship lab and startup work?

Positions I am applying for are strictly equity research, entry-level analyst, or market related.

I have networked, albeit not enough which is something I am working on.

Okay, sounds good. I just figured having JPM on there might benefit me in the screening process, especially when they electronically scan the application.
