Hedge Fund administration

I have an opportunity to work at a hedge fund administration firm and was wondering what the possible exit opportunities would be? I don't really see any relation to investment banking but could it possibly lead to a job at a hedge fund? I appreciate any information you can give me.

This is not related to investment banking. Hedge Fund Admin services are like prime brokers. Think of this job as a sales and trading operations role. You will probably deal with trade breaks, clearing and custodying securities, that kind of stuff. probably not very glamorous, definitely not related to investment banking, but a job is a job.
