San Diego Area Hedge Funds

Does anyone on the forum know a recruiter that covers San Diego hedge funds? There are relatively few HFs in San Diego, so I guess recruiters from Orange County or even LA are covering San Diego? Any input is appreciated.

PM Nouveau Richie I'm sure he can help you out.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
