Alright, let's dive into some resume advice based on the most helpful WSO content.
Thesis: Your resume needs a clear thesis. This means you should structure your resume to reflect what you want to sell about yourself. For example, if you have a significant internship or work experience, make that the largest section of your resume. This will help the reader remember you for that particular experience.
Bullet Points: Perfect the art of the one-line bullet point. For example, instead of saying "Drafted pitching materials", say "Drafted pitching materials, including comparable companies analysis and sector trends." This gives the reader a clear idea of your skills. However, avoid extending your bullet points onto another line with unimpressive details.
Interests: List an interests section. If you have intriguing interests, it can bump you to the top of the pile. Be specific with your interests. Instead of saying "traveling" or "reading", say something like "African safaris" or "Utopian sci-fi novels".
Professionalism: Use an aesthetically appealing font and make your resume appear professional. Avoid overusing italics, underlining, and bold.
Content: Do not have a statement about your "purpose" or "goals". Your resume should demonstrate your hard work and intelligence without explicitly stating it.
Review: Send your resume to alums/friends in the industry and have them review it before you start sending it to internship/analyst resume drops.
Remember, your resume is your first impression, so make it count!
