How do you show investment banking experience on a resume?

The first place to touch on investment banking experience in your resume is the profile summary. The profile summary is a concise, one-to-three-sentence statement that touches on who you are as a candidate and what you bring to the table.

For example, "An Investment Banking Associate with 10+ years of experience. Worked on and closed 20+ sell- and buy-side M&A deals each worth about $1B on average."

Next, you're going to want to elaborate on your specific experiences in investment banking. These experiences should focus on real-world examples and quantifiable measurements of success. For example, "Delivered marketing pitches to C-suite members of 20+ very large corporate clients."

Finally, we recommended providing a separate section to list skills that reflect your experience as an investment banker. Be sure to focus on skills relevant to the position and demonstrate your experience in investment banking. The skills section provides a quick snapshot of what you have learned this far in your career.
