All bullet points should start with a verb (a few of yours do not, such as the last two points under your boutique ER internship) and should be in the past-tense (even for current roles)

Try using All-Caps or Small-Caps for the three section headings so they will stick out a little more

I think you need some spacing throughout to make it easier on the eyes, a few tips:

  • Under your name, list your address, contact info, etc all on one line instead of two. Separate using the " | " symbol

  • Change the font... Is this cambria? Its not a bad looking font but its bulkier and takes up more space relative to other fonts

  • Try to re-word bullet points that only have only a couple words on the second line so you can fit it on one line (i.e. the third bullet point under Boutique ER internship)

 

You should take out the old gpa from your previous college, and just state your current overall cumulative gpa that's on your transcript.

Bullet points seem choppy...you might wanna rephrase those endless ;;;;;;;; Just use a past tense for your current IB gig
