At this stage you should remove contact information. You dont say when you graduated from College, but Im assuming 2007
You should put a range for your education time frame, when did you graduate? did you only go to school for one year? its unclear.
Nice work with your work experience section. Be sure to move it above Education, if youve already graduated.
Change this section to Skills. Any experience should be added to your Work experience section. Focus on core hard skills that relate to finance (if thats where you want to work). Bloomberg, Statistical Software, other applications.
Change this to "Work Experience"

Fudgy, I really like what you've done with your resume. You clearly know how to put together a professional resume and I encourage your to share your knowledge with the greater Razume community. Overall, I'm a little unsure where you are looking to go with your career. You have some great experience, but it's not focused in one or two areas. Please be sure to elaborate on your career goals further in your profile. I have a few comments for you, see left. Best of luck.
I would prefer to see some sort of Objective statement to outline the type of position you are looking for. You have an interesting set of experience albeit a short professional life. You may find that your salary expecatations are slightly high (you may need to be in the $45-55k range instead) although with your language skills and multicultural approach to learning I could be wrong.
I disagree about the objective statement. In today's market, a general objective does not help. Simply state your interest in each company through your cover letter and interviews--that way, recruiters will feel you're specifically targeting them. Think strategically-- a generic objective statement should be avoided. So keep your current approach, nice work on your resume!
Working for the office of Barack Obama will really help if he is elected pres, god willing.
