Student trying to break into IBD
Hello intertube readers. I am currently a sophomore at a semi-target in the midwest trying to break into investment banking. I am constantly trying to improve my resume and would appreciate any feedback.
I have been advised by my career counsler to leave my major GPA off (a 3.90/4.00) because it is so close to my overall GPA (3.85/4.00), but I have heard conflicting stories that if you leave your major GPA off employers will assume it is poor.
Any advice (about my major gpa/overall gpa or anything else that needs critiquing) would be greatly appreciated.
Both since your major is higher. Shows a devotion to Finance (assuming your major is in business/finance).
Leave off the major GPA - your career counselor is right - 3.85 is enough to clear any GPA hurdle.
Make your verbs punchier - try to find a way to eliminate the tense inconsistency in your present job (bullet 2 is past tense and 1 and 3 are present) - show more results in your bullet points -> how did your stock pitches do, what does your payroll system do, etc.
Sorry, didn't see the link for your resume. On second thought, I agree with DaCarez.
I agree with posts above -- leave major GPA off and keep overall.
good work for a sophmore. you dont need to have 3.85/4.00.. just have major gpa 3.9 and gpa 3.85 or whatever .
they know what its out of.
