What's wrong with this?

Background: Second year undergrad finance student at NYU. Been trying to land a finance internship for several months now (specifically looking for something Hedge Fund/Asset Management/Trading related). Got one interview from one well known Hedge Fund in May but didn't land it.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I would remove your high school info completely since you're already in your second year. Also, look at the M&I resume template and model your heading after it. Your resume looks messy at first glance. Even if your content is great, it's not presented in an organized manner. I think it mostly has to do with your dates being aligned right but not all the way to the margin(?), but for some reason the text in your bullets can extend further than them.

I'm not sure if what I just wrote made sense.

 

Your format doesn't present well. In addition, cut your UChicago high school summer. Seriously consider cutting high school as well.
