Resume Review - Final year student in Acc and Finance

Hey guys

So i am on WSO for quite some time already, although I signed up only today, just want to say that I like the site and the members here.

So here I go, I am a final year student in Acc and Finance hoping to get a summer internship in the finance industry (bank, professional firms, PE, etc).

I have re-edited my resume a countless times however I havent got any replies. so thought of giving a try here. FYI, I study in malaysia.

thanks

Hi alexspectr, You might want to edit parts of your resume so that it's more universally acceptable; i.e: put in what your GPA is, in the scale of your desired region of internship. (USA: 0-4.0) I personally believe you have some details that are unnecessary, especially if you want to work in finance. Most of your work descriptions can be shortened from 5 lines into 1-3 lines.

I would love to put more thought into this for you, but I'm underwater in work. Good luck!

The safest way to double your money is to fold it over twice and put it in your pocket.
