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."
