Fundamental L/S Equity Internship Advice [How to get a FT offer?]

I will be in interning at a fundamental l/s equity fund this summer. My background is 2 years investment banking, 3 years private equity, 1 year of business school completed thus far.

Aside from the work hard, ask questions, etc. WHAT ARE THE SMALL THINGS I CAN DO?

Thanks.

not helpful bro. ive been in the industry long enough. apparently you havent.

Actually, getting people to like you is one of the most important things you can do. Your response shows you actually need to take the advice.

These people could give you specific advice about L/S hedge funds. Your douchey attitude makes it less likely that they will.

 

Perhaps I'm misreading this, but is it common to do a HF internship once you have that many years of relevant experience? Or are you still in business school? If not, do they then look at whether they want to extend you to full time?
