$1m for Biotech Associate - Snowlake Capital???

Saw this post by a hedge fund based out of HK called Snowlake Capital. Is this legit? $1m for a 1st year biotech associate seems nuts. This has to be a joke right

Biotech probably has the highest barrier to entry (of any sector). I personally find the area boring as hell. The only thing appealing is the compensation packages attached to it. 

But understanding molecular genetics and having a deep understanding of financial markets is very rare. The few people who can do both at a high-level get paid.
