Becoming a MM PM

Is it possible to become a PM at a MM hedge fund by providing an audited track record of a few years running a market neutral L/S strategy ? given that i have never worked in finance before but my track record is amazing. This is a hypothetical question as i wanted to know if someone did it before or if it can be done.
