Hi guys,

If you're already interviewing, why do you care what your resume looks like...?

I am going to interview. Since I changed my resume recently, I just want to get some feedback from senior professionals at hedge funds.

Eliminate "around" in 1st line Your work experience only goes back 2 years? What did you do before that?

1 MFE grad - based on GPA? Also "this year"?

Fix "WACC's" Sub-bullets are too far out Your last line made me crack up - I pictured a basketball player in shades belting out chinese opera at full volume lol In that same line, you have a period - delete Get Excel off your resume

Generally pretty good though - perhaps include GPAs? Especially if you were #1 in your MFE class...
