How to write your own Financial Intern resume?

1. Explain why you want this internship

As people who do not really have to work yet due to the fact they are usually still in school and receive support from their family members, it is pretty important for recruiters to know why applicants want to pursue an internship and won’t just settle for a more comfortable alternative a couple of weeks into the job.

Demonstrate and explain why you are motivated enough to actually apply and then follow through in the case that you get the position. This can be done with a simple section that outlines your long-term career goals and shows how an internship may help you reach them or a profile section that outlines your passion for the subject that you study.

Financial Intern Resume Objective Example

"To combine analytical, practical, and innovative thinking to create value in communities. To strategically attempt to connect individuals and effectively reach audiences. To join a team dedicated to quality and communication, one for which my skills and knowledge can be a major asset."

2. Show how you are a relevant candidate

Internships are usually aimed at making interns focus on some specific sub-section of work or a specific industry. Therefore, recruiters will look for at least something which makes applicants “suitable” for working in the respective area. That can be anything from previous work experience to volunteering activity.

If you have done any of those in the past, including part-time jobs or summer jobs, be sure to write about them in your resume. Of course, try to pick the ones which are most relevant to the internship you want to do. In case you want to be a Financial Intern, anything that relates points to a background in business, accounting, finance, or economics will help.

Financial Intern Resume Education Section Example

Bachelor of Business Administration and Finance / Charleston Southern University (08/2014 – 05/2018)

"GPA: 3.96 out of 4.0"
"CSU Honors Program"
"Member of Sigma Beta Delta Honor Society"

3. Differentiate yourself from the rest

There is more demand for internships in the current, incredibly competitive job market. You see, students want to gain as much work experience before they are done with their degree. That means you should really highlight everything that could potentially put you above the big crowd applying for internships with you. Any awards you received, successes you contributed to, or notable results of your work should have a separate space in your resume so that no one can run their eyes over it without taking it in. Show that you can really make a valuable addition to any company despite being “just an intern”!
