aiming for MMB + OW/Booz/ATK... be harsh if needed

Hey Monkeys,

So I have built my resume from ground up based on some great feedback by "A Posse Ad Esse" (thanks), and I'm looking for some feedback on this one.

http://www.razume.com/documents/19808

Title says it all: Im about to start my last year of my undergrad degree and I'm aiming for MBB + other top consulting firms for recruiting sext semester.

Some background:

-- I'm from Spain (Europe), so you can't compare my "converted gpa" (different grading system here) to the US scale, since we have important grade DEFLATION. That said I am in the top 25-20% of my class.

-- I am from a target university

-- I have tried to leave decent margins and spacing, meaning I had to remove some details and extracurriculars.

Please, be harsh if needed. Thanks!

 

See, just from glancing that in literally 5 seconds before closing the tab, your formatting is far more on point than before. Thanks for the shoutout, haha.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
 

Format is decent. Bullets are a little odd - I prefer dots then sub-dashes. You need consistent line spacing for headers/header lines as well.

Write your values as €100k - widely used format and saves space.

Main issue is the quality of the English. You need to get someone fully fluent to review. E.g. you use "elaborated" 4 or 5 times but don't seem to know what it means. You can't put "native" English in your languages section as it stands.

Thanks for the feedback porcine. It seems that I got too obsessed with formating and space which appears to have taken a toll on my english, even though I'm bilingual (british father) hahaha.

Anyway, I'll definitely review the english on the document. Thanks a lot!
