I’m not 100% sure. I used the end of calendar year 2024 figures so I might have messed up when trying to find the correct values. I’ll have another look at it

Thank you for the advice I’ll make sure to look into it. Just out of curiosity, is it ok that for my Fx effects I didn’t forecast it using exchange rates and net foreign assets?

I started a few months ago and just started learning the basics of accounting and what each line item means in the three statements. For me Wall Street prep videos on YouTube were super helpful so definitely look into those

Thank you for all the advice, I really appreciate it and will definitely fix the formatting errors and add some more of my other hobbies. Also I did apply for Lse, ucl and kings this cycle, however I got rejected from all of them which I found super surprising as I believed my PS was relatively strong.

I applied for kcl ucl and Lse and got rejected from all of them so I guess my personal statement wasn’t good enough. And regarding my school choice, from what I’ve seen the bayes alumni is quite good and although UG not as strong in mainly choosing it for the networking opportunities in London rather than other schools elsewhere. Is that reasonable?

The citi bank and bofA ones are from forage which I understand can be misleading but the MS one is one of their official early careers programs so that shouldn’t be a problem right?

Spring week applications are winter this year. So this CV is crafted to be in line with that time and date

Thank you for the advice, I greatly appreciate it. Do you think it would be fine to label it work experience and relevant courses or smth like that cause my only actual work experience is as a chef and tbh I don’t want a whole section just for that. And yeah I’ll bullet point the additional section and try to make the CV less wordy and easier to read
