HF Internship Recruiting

Rising sophomore recruiting for both IB and HF roles. Am wondering what hedge funds have roles in fundamental equity, and what the interviews are like. Also for someone who wants to work in HF would you recomment going from IB -> HF or is it possible to go straight to HF out of college.
