Wow that formatting seems to mesh poorly with this forum. Could someone let me know if that's legible to them?
Yeah dude, follow the standard IB format -> post it on rasume, then come back.
Perhaps phrase the Freemasons in terms of your lodge, so it is a little less direct. You don't want to interview with someone who just watched one of those shows on the pseudo-History Channel.
CB - Haha, good point.
Ragnar - Where can I find the format you speak of? Are you referring to the template on Mergers and Inquisitions?
Is this resume so full of fail it's laughable, or do you think a recruiter for PWM would consider it thoughtfully? I've never looked at any other PWM applicants' resumes, so I don't know.
Does 'Retail Financial Services' = Bank Teller? Also, doesn't PWM take anyone with a heartbeat?
I'm not a teller, I'm a personal banker. I open & service deposit accounts, sell investments and loans.
Another question, what is this 'amateur pilot' thing you have on your resume? Take that off if your not licensed.
I'd put flight hours etc rather than amateur pilot. also as a fellow brother pm me and I'll shoot you my res if you like. pwm seems to be fairly easy to get into at the merrill, morgan stanley etc. level. goldman sachs seems tough as they only speak with 10mm and above investable.
I don't have a PPL, but I'm working towards it. It's very expensive. I will take that off or list flight hours. Walmart, you have a PM.
