Have you seen anyone with a MM IB background break into the HF space? All the LinkedIn profiles I've seen are people with BB/EB and MF PE backgrounds.
I'm currently in the middle of LMM PE stint in the midwest and came from a mid/top tier MM IB in Chicago. Would running hard at HF recruiting be a waste of time for me simply due to credentials?

It's definitely possible. I know people who went from a Jefferies / Piper Jaffray to a hedge fund.
Awesome. If you are comfortable, would you be willing to shoot me a PM with their name so I can look them up on LinkedIn and ask them for advice? Won't mention you or anything, but totally get it if you're not comfortable doing so.
just LI search "piper jaffray (sandler)" + research associate or associate or analyst or equity analyst.
or search for anyone whose former role was at one of the two firms you mentioned and work backwards
