I thought I had a good resume prior to applying to banks on campus. I did not get any first round interviews and am trying to diagnose why. Good place to start is always the resume, so kindly tear it apart.
NOTE: I keep my high school on my resume because it is a private high school with a large and strong alumni network.

Formatting, formatting, formatting. I suggest looking at the WSO resume templates, because right now, to be honest this is a list of resume information in a word document, not a resume (sorry if this is harsh). Some of the keys:
-Move address to top with name, phone, email -All locations and dates should be on right margin -Create some sort of separation between sections. A simple line to break up the different sections would suffice (see other resume examples) -Expand job bullets. These should not be job titles (those typically go under the company), but rather explain your responsibilities and give the reader a summary of what you did/are capable of
Look at M&I or WSO resume template, if you go to a U.S. target there really should be no reason why you can't ask your seniors' feedback on your resume.
Thanks for your comments for posting.
Awesome thanks guys!
