Resume Review Please - Interested in applying for investment banking
I am interested in applying for investment banking internships for the summer, boutique and bb, and would like some criticism/suggestions regarding my resume. I am a junior at a non-target, top 20 undergraduate business school and am looking to apply to banks in the Texas area. I feel like I need to get my GPA up to a 3.7 for my resume to look better. Tell me what you guys think. Also, I am currently studying international finance abroad and was thinking of applying for internships while I am overseas and wanted to get an opinion on that too.
take out the judge clerk thing (they could care less), and add more finance related activities ... the only thing i see that you have going for you on there to be completely honest is studying abroad at oxford. not to be a dick, but the rest of your resume isnt competitive at all for someone in their junior year. take out relevant coursework (goldman sachs doesnt care if you took calculus) ... more finance experience, less of the other shit. i guarantee you will not get an SA position with your current resume.
I would take off the two adrresses and make them just one, doesn't matter which one.
Maybe expand a little on the Oxford, perhaps what you did- you don't have much emphasis on that, which is a very well-known university
I would take out the relevant coursework. It seems those are basic classes that every finance major takes, so it really doesn't diffrentiate your resume, and the reviewer will know your just trying to fluff your resume
I would look to increase the information on the internships, and the energy association and other activities. The judge clerk isn't really relevant to IB
Overall, you have a decent resume with a somewhat good GPA. I would work on improving that GPA, perhaps getting a PWM internship or start looking for a boutique experience during the semester or summer
Agree with the above...and smu is not a top 20 business school.
