Would you interview me? (IBD SA 2026)

Hello WSO!

Sophomore here wanting to get one last check before sending out wave of applications.

Some info:

I have two on-campus research experiences, but they're not finance related at all—mostly technical work in labs doing machine learning/nuclear energy research. Not sure if they're worth putting down.

I'm also in a finance club that has a training program for new members. Also not sure if/where to put that.

Any critiques welcome, whether on content, formatting, or anything else.

Thanks!
