HFs that do on cycle?

Hi all,

Incoming first year at a bank interested in public investing. With on cycle approaching - lot of headhunters running on campus chats and reaching out recently, wanted to ask about HFs that are known to do on cycle?

Have heard of silver point, farallon, and diameter - if anyone can confirm/list any others, would be much appreciated. Cheers

Thanks - have heard similar sentiments but HHs have indicated some hedge funds are still interested. Do you know if silver point and farallon still participate?
