Seems as though you switch between present and past tense in the bullets describing your current job.

Also for an IB role, you will need to find a way to enhance your relevant skillset to banking - find a way to incorporate any experience you may have with "modeling" or "valuation" even it it applies to your coursework only...

Blake, thanks for the insight. I was recently switched to a new team that was supportive of my old team (If that makes sense). W that being said, I wanted to highlight the responsibilites that both positions encompassed.

Tying in coursework is a great idea.. Thanks again!

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold. I'll be fine once I get it
