fairly straightforward HF interview, mostly personality, why HF, why distressed, what you think of markets etc. Going back for 2nd rd in upcoming wks.

It's always interesting to hear how various hedge funds handle the interview process.

Personality: "I like sports"

Why HF: "I missed the Private Equity recruiting cycle."

Why distressed: "I was placed in the high yield group at my bank and these are the only interviews I'm getting."

Thoughts on the market: "He seems pretty depressed these days."
