Resume Review for Financial Services

Anyone really want to provide some harsh criticism for my resume? i really want to get involved in Asset Management, hopefully at a smaller boutique firm and I'm not very confident in the strength of my resume. In the meantime, I am working on obtaining a part-time school-year asset/wealth management internship in Boston.

Add some horizontal lines. They make reading much easier.

You tell me what's wrong with this line:

"Music: play piano and guitar, Traveling, Financial Market Research & Trading, Weightlifting"

 

thank you! i left those lines in as I think they're useful conversation topics with people I network with, but it's probably better to remove that section. it actually seems pretty silly now.

 

also the inconsistent capitalization. it's these small things that tell me (and likely a resume screener) whether you have an attention to detail, are meticulous, etc. I personally see it as a huge ding when there are formatting, syntax, spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors on a resume.

 

thank you very much for the advice everyone! I did my best to correct the Interests section as well as several inconsistencies in capitalization. if there's anything else that needs correcting, let me know. I updated the resume file to showcase a few of these corrections.
