Hey Analyst 1 in IB-M&A, I swear if I had a silver banana for every lonely thread I posted too I'd be richer than @compbanker ...

More suggestions...

Hope that helps.

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

Not sure for MSFs but the fact that you do not have an interest section is somewhat odd, I’m like ok this guy seems to be able to do the job, but what are we gonna shit chat on?

Also I know that some MSFs publish resume books, just have a look there and get some inspiration - doesn’t hurt.

On a 1 min read looks good to me other than what I pointed out above

A few things I noted:

  • The upper and lower margin is pretty slim.
  • The right margin seems to be slightly slimmer than the left margin.
  • The bars under the category headers do not match up at the right side (first one is shorter).
  • During your bachelor's, did you do any relevant courses, electives, projects or a thesis?
  • Try to avoid bullet points that have only one or two words in the second line. I think that doesn't look good but others might have a different opinion.
  • Removing lines with only one or two words would give you space to add certificates, computer skills (Microsoft office is basic but do you know Bloomberg, CapIQ, Factset etc.?), programming skills, languages and interests.
  • Remove the (Deal was pulled at the letter of intent phase.). Mention that in an interview if you get a specific question how the deal continued.

About the interest section, there have been discussions on WSO and the consensus is that you should only add it if you have something non-generic. I'm totally basic so I don't have an interest section. The CV still got me interviews at BBs. But I never applied for an MSF programme so can't say how important it is there.
