"But I'll Have the Same Resume as Everyone Else!"
No, because only 0.1% of those who see this template will actually download it and use it. Don't overestimate the competition.
And even though this site is well-known, only a tiny fraction of those interested in investment banking have visited it.
If you are worried, just modify the formatting and use different fonts, spacing, or margins.
You can actually use a similar template for anything in finance, whether you worked on the sell-side or buy-side.
But you can't use it for everything.
Who Should Use This (or a Similar) Template:
- Students who have had banking / finance internships (you will need to make some modifications, e.g. put Education at the top instead).
- Current Analysts and Associates.
- Anyone in other front-office finance roles who is now looking for something else within finance.
Who Should Not Use This Template:
- Anyone applying to business school -- for that you want to present a more "balanced" picture of what you've done.
- Older, more experienced people -- if you have worked on 20+ deals you will need a separate page for listing everything. This usually only happens at the VP-level and above.
- Anyone working outside finance or anyone interested in moving to something outside finance -- the Peace Corps doesn't care if you know what EBITDA means.
