Would this Resume make the Cut?

guys, im a rising junior from a non-target that ranks amongst the top 25 LACs. I'm hoping for IB SA position next summer. Pls let me know what u think of this resume.

My first experience was in a BB summer 2009. Second one was in top 5 consulting companies winter 2009. Third was in a non-profit this summer. would be great to get ppls input.

thnx a lot all!

regards

i would say ... not really....

there is only top 3 consulting firm... and the rest...

i am assuming you fall into the rest?

given the respect IB have for consulting... again... not really.

 

Well I can imagine you probably go to Macalester as thats the only decent school thats in Saint Paul,MN. If you go there then you have a pretty good shot with this resume as it is a semi target school. There are many alumni from your school on the street. Which firms are you looking at ? Only the BB or Boutiques as well, cause that would matter.

 

As others have said, it depends on the school. If you attend at least a semi-target, you should be in pretty decent shape for recruiting - your resume can use some work, but the pieces are there and if you take another run through it, you should be able to land some interviews - especially if you do some networking.
