Jeez the bullets under your digital transformation role sound like you’re bragging to friends. Need more bullets like #2 but without all the fluff. Cut the bs and show me impact

Agree with Accenture 2 ^

I see you’re getting lots of great insight from posters who are likely closer to your age and station. From the perspective of an old guy who would be closer to the folks on the other end of this decision I have only one additional piece of advice: Please don’t use golf as a verb. Your interest is in golf, not “golfing” 😂

Good luck!

Take off your test scores, why are people putting SAT scores at the top of their resume lol???

likefunnysmart

C5, usually no. They understand some students have no scores as long as you note it.

Bro take your HS test scores down you’re grown 😂. Should’ve been off by the time you were a sophomore tbh

like

“Bachelor’s in Econ” should be updated to either Bachelor of Arts in Econ or Bachelor of Science, depending on which one is listed on your degree. The way you have it now isn’t proper format. I’d remove your GPA since it’s not high, and remove your test scores

Remove your low GPA and SAT scores.

This is actually really smart. Crowd source free resume feedback. Props to OP.

Completely agree.

I'm surprised there isn't a crowdsource resume review Bowl tbh. I think it would be a great way to compile CURRENT best practices and maybe even earn a call/role.

Try to reduce the bullets to one line if you can

like

That bullet about achieving highest utilization and performance based compensation definitely shouldn’t be on there, like others have said show impact statements based on what you’ve done in your client work.

Get rid of your tests score. GPA is medicore so kill it. Your bullets should all show impact, which many don't.

Leave test scores in. Most ppl who scored highly/went to top schools would respect

I unfortunately disagree. A hiring manager might think that but the recruiter will likely think it’s a bit obnoxious. I’d remove them. 20 yrs in the HR consulting game.

Post here OP

Updated post

You do it some - continue to show impact. You presented to execs - so what? Did they take action on your recommendations? Etc

Move school to bottom. Remove your hobbies

Move skills to top, Take out your GPA, take out those enrichment activities, some of your bullets from your experience list don’t add value so I’d remove (almost half of them don’t add value tbh)
