Resume Review - Investment Management/Equity Research post MBA

Hello everyone,

Please critique my resume. I want to get into Investment management/Equity research post my MBA. I will be interning at Kennedy Capital management, a st. Louis based investment management firm focussed on small and mid cap equities. As a finance intern (1 yearlong intern), I am expected to assist analysts and portfolio managers with equity research and perform various "Administrative duties". I wish to work at a Buy-side firm in NYC.

Thanking in anticipation aimwallstreet2011

Sorry, you never know.

Any reason why you did not include your GPA? Only other comment is the last section I would personally title it "Other" instead of "Other Data"

Good luck.

 

it's a very weak resume for a summer associate position. nothing on your resume sounds impressive to be honest. If you get 1 or 2 interviews with it, consider yourself the luckiest guy alive.
