Resume review for IB - Graduating soon and looking for opportunities

I'm graduating soon and am looking for opportunities in either IB or consulting. Am indifferent between them. How should I customize my resume towards IB? Also you guys with consulting background, how do you customize to a consulting (MBB) one as well. But most importantly, I need it down to 1 page. Any criticisms or useful reviews would be welcomed :)

i would take away at least one bullet point from all your past experiences and completely take out the entire tutor experience (the last one on your resume).

and trim one line off of your skills & interests. same goes for honors and awards (you dont have to list every damn recognition and award you've received as a college student mate)

gl!

 

You've got the experience etc, just need to sort the formatting out:

1) Fit onto 1 page

2) Remove a couple of your work/leadership experiences (non relevant ones)

3) change 'SKILLS & INTERESTS' section to 'skills, achievements & interests' and move 'honours' from 'education' down here - shorten this section & put all onto one/two lines

pretty much everything mutt said

 

Way too much white space. Why is your header not reaching the top of the page?

Consolidate your bullet points. They look like short stories.

 

Hi all, thanks for your comments. I have updated a new version 2.0 of my resume. Made it to one page and tailored it more towards banking. Again, your feedbacks are invaluable, keep them coming! Cheers!

 

I'm coming out of college, so do not have any "real" professional experience yet. Thought it'll be better to emphasize my academic credentials. what do you think?

 

Guess what? Your internships ARE real experience.

I just came out of college, but have left my Education in the top section. Keep it that way; continue to shoot your resume out. It's pretty damn strong.
