S&T SA Resume Review - Appreciate any feedback

I have made many changes to my resume since the last time I posted it to WSO. I visited New York and got a ton of great feedback to help change my resume. Specifically, I did lots of condensing to make the font size larger and more readable with concise points.

I would appreciate any and all feedback from people on this website.

Thanks in advance for your help

Eh, sales and trading isn't my bag of tricks but here's my 2 cents.

It's a strong resume, I think that you have a lot here. Definitely a lot of undergraduate indiciations that you want to work in the business. I think that this is a good format and you have a lot of relevant info on the page.

Nitpicking but I would place the Merrill internship above your fraternity credentials.. eyes tend to work their way down the page. While I was a proud and drunk greek myself, Merrill may be the thing you want someone to see before XYZ fraternity.

Not much else I would change

 

A couple of main points I want to address:

1) Tutoring: You have 2 paragraphs dedicated to this, I'm not sure if you want to emphasize this so much.. Maybe create a bullet point at the end of your resume and put a one-liner? 2) For your treasury role, I am left with a question of so what when I read your statements? You need to put what your results are, so the reader says okay, good! For example: Led a $500k annual budget as part of XYZ, negotiated a $50k contract for social events. Also watch out what your saying, you say you collected $500k, are you sure about that? 3) ML: What is focus growth goals? 4) 10 Select student society: Your CV lacks action words, especially this section.. you need to say --> Participated in XYZ finance society, led to THIS, or resulted in THIS, or MADE THIS. 5) Your resume is filled with grandiose statements like 'chosen from select group of XYZ students', jeez.. it's a bit much to do it 3x on your resume..

Overall, focus on 3 main jobs/experience, and 1 leadership. From a quick glance, focus on the student fund, fraternity and ML, and 1 other one. You have too much going on , and you need to fix your descriptions. Don't forget your CGPA , that's the first thing that popped up in my head which was why you didn't list it.
