I'm a rising junior at a "target" school, who's done mostly finance-related internships. I'm thinking about applying for consulting, particularly MBB as well as the second-tier firms.
What do MBB recruiters look for in the resume screen in terms of experience? Would the fact that most of my resume is finance-related by a positive or a minus? I'm particularly looking for feedback from people who are familiar with the resume screen process at target schools.
Thanks in advance.

Finance vs. Consulting Resume (Originally Posted: 10/13/2013)
Given that both consulting firms and banks like to see quantifiable results, how would a finance focused resume differ from a consulting focused resume?
What about style, layout, skills highlighted etc. would be different?
