Hiring after undergraduate
Would you advise someone to join a hedge Fund straight after their undergraduate. Or would it be a bit more sensible to join an investment bank or a private equity firm. oh yeah, can you also join a private equity firm straight after college?

The argument for why you may want to join an established sell side firm is not only the training but also the job security. Many HFs fail or you may not be able to handle the work load or perform. In most cases it's better to wait until after an analyst stint. I would wait until the offers are in hand so you can evaluate each firm and make a more informed decision.
MF PE firms (KKR, BX etc) have established undergrad recruiting programs, as do the large platform HFs (P72, Citadel, Millennium)- although the latter two have only recently started. They're harder to get into in general than getting a job in IB after undergrad, mainly because there are so few firms and seats available to undergrads to begin with.
As to what the most sensible move is, that really depends on what you like. Don't expect anyone to give you a definitive answer. There are tons of threads on this forum where people discuss their experiences and pros/cons of each job. Start with those to get a sense of it
