I'm 2/3 of the way through my FLDP and am looking at other very select opportunities. I havent updated my resume since college so all my FT experience is new here. Please tear it apart.
Any advice is much appreciated.. just trying to gauge how this will be viewed by a 3rd party.

You're welcome.
What are you looking to move into? Could help give more targeted advice
I would like to move into consulting or corporate finance at a tech or high growth company.
Yeah, as some other posters have mentioned, I think there are a lot of issues with your current resume, regardless of industry. You know how to write the individual bullets well (micro), but the resume should also tell a story that makes you attractive as a candidate (macro)
anyone?
Would really appreciate any input on how I can improve my resume to make this more marketable.
I'd definitely recommend adding some more extracurricular/interest stuff. That resume is literally just a wall of work experience text. That may be why nobody has given great feedback. Even I don't want to try to read all of that right now haha. Also would help if it wasn't redacted (although, I definitely wouldn't advise putting the non-redacted version on here, obviously). Could always use a resume review service like this if you really want to make sure it's in good shape
A helpful way to approach your resume would be to try to forget everything on it, then give yourself 15 seconds (like literally with a timer) to read it, and see what sentences stand out to you. Definitely think you should have some Interests or other items on it. Looks very bland right now.
Is there a reason the entire resume is your work experience? You shouldn't have your entire resume be only work experiences. Never seen a resume like that before.
