you are not highly proficient in excel or any of those tools. analysts who have gone through 2-3 years of banking dont even claim that.

further more you are not experienced in fundamental / quant analysis.

need to be more realistic. in fact take those things out. you are just begging to be challenged by someone, and more likely than not you won't be able to satisfy them

 

Everything you to know about making a resume.

Personal wealth is not how much you have in the bank or the worth of your portfolio. But, rather how you've used the wealth to make your life and those around you better.
 

Brah, not sure where you might be interning now but... It's gonna be hard. Stop the bullshit on the resume and be honest, you'll be caught out otherwise in interview. Quantitative analysis? You a quant? Highly proficient in Excel & Word? You're in for a surprise.

http://www.razume.com/documents/26609[/quote] How did you account for leptokurtic return distributions in your asset allocation decisions? This is one of many douche questions someone like me might ask given the stuff near the bottom of the resume. Agree with some of the others that you may want to tone stuff like that down.

Thanks for the insight guys. I will definitely be making some major adjustments to my resume based on all this. Well maybe not from the YouTube video but it was pretty funny anyway
