Full-Time, Where do I Stand?

I'm posting my résumé for two reasons:

1) Hopefully to have any errors caught and to receive feedback on how to improve my résumé.

2) To get a better idea of what tier of firms I have a realistic shot at. I'm going for investment banking, consulting, and corporate finance positions, but if I don't have a good shot at decent firms, I'll probably pursue a master program, law school, entrepreneurship, teaching English abroad, or something else. Unfortunately, I don't have a clear focus on what career I want to pursue.

Notes about the résumé:
- School is public semi-target along the lines of UT-Austin/Indiana/UNC/
- Public finance internship is with my state's government
- Private Equity internship was with a very small, regional firm. Doubt anyone has ever heard of it.
- Research assistant position was with another campus of my school. Project was related to history/literature
- This is the investment banking version. I switch something up when I apply to consulting firms
- Regrettably don't have many teamwork experiences or results to highlight from my internships, so I tried to do the best I could

One more thing: Since I'm not a finance major and I haven't had an IB internship, I don't have much technical experience. I'm trying to strike a balance between "bankifying" my resume and not attracting a lot of technical questions (although getting the interview would be paramount). If you have any opinion on how to approach that, I would love to hear.

Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

i think it looks great, you have some awesome experience and the way you worded everything flows really well.

i would just remove the 'hong kong, china' and 'london uk' after the entries in your education section. it's kind of redundant because those locations are implied in the entry titles.

also, your education section is a little long... i would try to make it a bit more concise and build out your work experience section more... maybe there's an extra thing or 2 you can talk about for each of your entries in the work experience section.

aside from those things, i think it's a very solid resume and i wish you the best of luck.
