It's really not a good time to look for HF opportunities especially if you're in college. It would be a poor use of time and effort. My HF is one of the largest macro HFs and it doesn't recruit out of undergrad even in good years (occasionally 1 or 2 get in per year in the entire firm). Most HFs don't have the P&L so far this year to take on new hires, and definitely cannot risk an inexperienced hire. The standard names come to mind -- Bridgewater, Citadel, Two Sigma, Point72, D.E. Shaw--regarding regular recruitment of students out of college (assuming you have good quant capabilities for the latter 3). There may be some smaller AUM funds with the P&L to hire someone, but they're really hard to find and even recognize the name of. Plus the industry is under a lot of pressure to lower its fees and experiencing capital outflows. Several large macro HFs have experienced capital outflows and it's quite likely the same is happening on L/S equity as they've been mostly non-performing for the past few years. Good luck if you do insist on pursuing this route.
