Hedge Fund Filtering for Recruiting

First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to read this post.


I'm trying to compile a list of hedge funds that align with my investing style before starting full-time in my investment banking role this summer. I've been employing sites like Hedgefollow, Whalewisdom, past WSO articles, etc. And while I appreciate getting a taste of the HF analyst role already, with limited information which everyone else has access to, I was hoping to get an inside edge and learn of any specific resources or sites you found helpful in filtering funds and the respective pods within them (if applicable)? 


Thanks so much in advance for your insight.


For context: I am at a school not typically recruited at, so the resources here are sparse, as in no CapIQ or anything of the nature.
