Finding BizDev recruiters to launch processes - how to

Hi there.
Wondering what is the best way to get in touch with the BizDev recruiters? (specifically L/S equity funds). I come from an untraditional background, so search firms are not lining up to help me, (however, I do check some boxes with prestigious academics, GPA, and current non-finance job).

The couple of BizDev I did manage to get to - did move me forward in the process. But want to connect with more funds (e.g., Citadel, Millennium, etc. etc.)
