College Sophomore Shooting Towards M&A/Consulting -- Tear my resume apart!
I'm a sophomore finance major at a semi-target that has light/infrequent recruiting for M&A, but a few banks for S&T, consulting, etc. My school is ranked 35-40 nationally.
I'll be interning at a small consulting firm in Singapore this summer, and that portion is not yet on my actual resume, just adding it here for reference/as a future draft.
I'd really like to hear any feedback or advice as to what to change on my resume. I'll be applying for summer analyst positions across a variety of financial industries, focused mostly in the Northeast. If you have any suggestions to help give me an edge toward recruiting, I'd love to hear that, too.
Thanks!

If you are referring to the accounting firm, It should be "PwC". The W is lowercase
Bullshit externships and summits aren't experience, sorry. Just tossing big 4 brand names on your resume for the sake of it isn't going to impress anyone. Almpst as bad as the EU kids and their week long internships at BBs
^^^ hate to see when kids put "selected out of x number of kids" ok congrats you got in...what did you do/learn that's going to be of any benefit to the company you are applying to. not to be rude but no one gives a shit if you went and networked with PwC for a week. These experiences are better to bring up in conversation in an interview. for example, "I really found my interest in consulting when I spent a week with company X talking to their consultants about their experiences...." you get the point.
