Here's the first draft of my resume. Wasn't really sure what type of stuff to emphasize in work experience since I haven't seen any capital markets group resumes here. As for putting education after work experience, I wanted to emphasize the good part of my resume (two years of front office work experience) and de-emphasize the bad part (a sub-par major GPA and even worse cumulative which isn't even on the resume). Thanks!

“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
ew 3.1 at UPenn.
Why aren't you just shooting for DCM at RBC for full time.
Exactly... if you have two straight summers in the same department... you should have no problem getting a VPD or MD to give u a solid recommendation and basically guarantee a fulltime placement lol
50 hours per week on an EC newspaper? I'm a little skeptical (but perhaps this is standard for resumes of this sort).
Daily production hours were 6pm - 2am. That's 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. Add in planning, meetings, stories I had to write, etc...and you're up to 50. It wasn't some weekly Mickey Mouse shit; it was essentially a full-time job.
youre a fag, the most anyone does with a school newspaper is look through the headlines
unless working on this somehow got you laid you totally wasted your time
How do you know he is at penn?

Because even though I know it's note form, it's better grammar than "avid golfer, also enjoy playing..."
