Inconsistent Months, they should all be Jun., Apr., etc
Formatiing should be the same, different fonts on experinces and extra spaces in certain places
got it, I had them listed by professional then relevant experience, so you're saying chronological order is better?
Thanks for responding!!
A lot of white space. Need less gap between experiences and bullets to the end of the page
okay, I'll fix that. thanks for the response!!
For some reason, your lines are not going all the way across the page.
Like others have said, there is way too much white space. The formatting seems wonky with the lines not going all the way across. There is a huge gap in the skills sections. Your skills are ridiculous, I would delete all of the soft skills. Fast learner isn’t a technical skills. Then add a line about interests.
Your bullet points are pretty weak. I’d google “Yale Resume Book” or “Harvard Resume book” (or any other school) and find the doc put out by those schools career websites. Look at the finance resume examples and the verb lists to figure out how to make your bullet points stronger.
Also check your grammar. You have some capitalization errors.
I would look at the WSO template, it’s pretty good.
I see the grammatical errors, thanks for pointing that out. Also, I looked up 'Harvard Resume Book' and I've made some adjustments. It's supposed to be 'Skills' not 'Technical Skills', error on my part
You need a new template and a lot more guidance that I can give on this forum. Also there's is no point on repeating something that's already been said. Follow these instructions to the T and you should be golden.

Hi,
Firstly, I like that you included quantitative results in each bullet point, however, like others have said try removing white space by compacting everything together. I also recommend trying to lengthen bullet points but keep the information relevant and with strong action verbs. The indentations for bullet points should be enough to delineate each experience without the white space.
To also use your space more effectively, I recommend putting the company and the position title in the same line (see attached pic for example). With the extra space you can showcase more experiences, personal projects, entrepreneurial experiences, or even add more bullet points to better sell yourself.
Remove CC from your cv. You’re in a new school now. Nothing wrong with cc, I did cc for 3 years but don’t have it on my cv and don’t get asked about it
Is the absolutely botched formatting a way to draw attention away from the 2.9
"Bona Fide Team Player". Pls delete. Thx

Obviously, it didn't work so no :)
I've made some adjustments, please critique some more
Im gonna be completely brutally honest man. There are a ton of issues with your resume that us on WSO may not be able to fully address one at a time. I would highly recommend having a mentor / peer student / career services go through it with you, mark it up fully, and implement changes. Key things that stand out - too many technical skills, need an interest section, all bullets need to go to end of page, less space between jobs, more information in total, quantify all bullets.
