Sometimes, all it takes is a few tweaks to make your CV stand out from the rest. If you’re open to it, I’d love to help you improve your CV by roasting it together! 🔥

– Is your formatting clean and easy to read?
– Are your experiences and skills tailored to the specific job you’re applying for?
– Have you included any relevant keywords or buzzwords that recruiters are looking for?
Feel free to share a snippet of your CV here (without personal information) so we can give you some constructive feedback! Let’s work on this together and help each other succeed! 💪🌟#JobSeekers #ResumeReview #GraduateJobs
Is the GPA scale 0-4? If so, I would not put anything under 3.
A good start is putting the education up and work experience below it, also throw in some numbers in the work experience that show impact rather than just general roles in that job/internship.
from experience, if you ask ppl to review your CV, you will never finish. Said that, I would just leave the years and not put months. keep it consistent. Use Action words easily found if you google it. I like to put at least 1 bulletpoint soft skill and 1 tech skills.
Skills and interest section is too far indented and not aligned with the rest of the text on the page
No comma in „secure funding for startups”
Masters at reading icl youre cooked bro
I’m going to roast your life
You are spoiled and / or sheltered. 2 internships in 5 years of school? Unless you were working during school (which should be on here), that is what this CV screams.
You weren’t mentally ready to get a job after undergrad, so you wasted your parents’ money to get a crappy UK MSc? This is what this CV is telling me.
Based on this CV, it’s almost like the first time you made one.
Step 1) Understand that having degrees does not mean someone will give you a job, especially in this market. You have to make yourself much more marketable and convince employers you will add value and outperform your peers from Day 1. It is clear from this post you haven’t done any serious thinking about your career.
2) Go to WallStreetOasis and ready everything there is to know about getting finance jobs, including different paths in finance (front office, back office, IB/Asset Management/Commercial Banking) CVs, networking, coffee chats, interviewing etc
3) Be realistic about the roles you can get. Given your CV and this market, I would consider call center / client service roles for AM like Fidelity etc to get your foot in the door
4) Revamp your CV – STAR method, correct capitalization, put real skills, add detail around the research projects to fill up space
