-Agree with Anthony about the city/date lineup, it looks awful. Learn how to use styles on Word.

-I feel like I asked this last time as well, but was your study abroad experience at a specific university in Israel? If so, list the university in the same manner as you did Baruch, then list "Study Abroad Program" instead of a degree.

-This one is at your discretion, but I would write out "City University of New York." I try to avoid acronyms and abbreviations unless it shows industry knowledge (M&A vs. "Mergers and Acquisitions") or I need to save space. You have plenty of room and there will likely be people who don't know what CUNY is if you ever decide to apply to firms in other cities.

-Move "Deans List (2010)" into the Honors section. Also, change "Deans" to "Dean's" (note the apostrophe).

-In your third internship title, remove the comma after the word "Sales"

-Not a correction, but I like the way you listed your volunteer and extracurricular activities.

-Research synonyms for the word "create," it's used WAY too often in your descriptions. In a perfect world, you wouldn't repeat any of your sentence-leading verbs, but I know that's not realistic.

-The white space to the right of your "Skills, Activities & Interests" section seems weird. I don't know how you can remedy this, but it seems haunting or something.

if you can, you should definitely do FLP....If you are frum then you can probably use that to your advantage and try to find religious people on the street (there are a ton especially at Lazard/GS).... talk to May at starr she can be a huge help...... consider getting rid of the "self improvement" in interests....... pretty good for a sophomore...if you keep it up and network you will definitely have a shot at bulge for next summer.... good luck

 

hahah thanks guys.... Ya i was unsure about those two interests... Aleph- thanks man.. I actually have been working with May for a while, shes great. my resume would look nothing like this if it wasnt for her. I am going to try to do FLP but cannot until next year.. Also thanks for the place stuff-- it got messed up when i cconverted to a pdf... I have the name of the school on my resume jsut took it off when i posted it like i took off the company names..

 

pick one font and stick with it. if you're using word you can save it as a pdf using the save as option. that way you won't have to use some external program and it gets all fucked up as a result. also be consistent in the way you do your dates; change the spring/summer/fall/winter 2009/2010 stuff to the exact months.
