Rising Non-Target Junior - SA 2015 Resume
Would really appreciate any and all feedback. I have pretty weak work experience and GPA, but a decent network to tap into and a relatively well rounded resume (I think). Please review my resume attached. I will be applying to MBB/Tier I & II Consulting firms, IB, and S&T roles this year through contacts and networks. Also of note, I am an American citizen trying to intern at any London offices (ideal), but will consider US offices as well.

thanks in advance
too much shit on your resume please cut
Thanks for the comment. Please specify. I realize my resume is pretty text heavy and verbose. I've had a hard time figuring out what and how much to cut.
Suggestions anyone?
Just curious, is the spacing in between the titles e.g "Professional Experience" and "Leadership Experience" different? Also, I feel that you should quantify more.
On a side note, I was wondering if your font size is around 8. Thanks.
Thanks for catching that. Will revise. Font size for general text is Garamond 10, for sub headings/titles is Garamond 10, and for major headings is 11.
Take out all the career development programs except the diversity program. Include the specific events if you are applying to that firm. Also, the MBB is pointless if you did not win the case competition.
Thanks will consider taking out the programs, however, the event with the MBB wasn't really a case competition (will probably revise that portion), it was more of a networking/recruiting event at one of their major offices.
Regardless, by adding those programs, it will raise questions as to why you are applying to my bank opposed to the banks of the programs you went to. Furthermore if you want to do IBD, I'll most likely pick someone else over you given the same caliber simply because you could be more interested in another bank or position (MC). At the end of the day, firms want to give offers to people who will most likely take it, otherwise you would have been a waste of everyone's time.
OK. I see your point. I have just heard differently from others. It was my understanding that attending these events gives the perception that the candidate applying to a particular position could perhaps be a highly valued candidate because another competing firm has already taken out time and resources to recruit the same individual (to some extent).
Definitely take out some stuff, increase white space and maybe increase font size.
