How do I respond to a headhunter that asks for my track record?

Currently in talks with a headhunter for a HF, and they are asking for an attribution/track record. If I have none, what should I say? (currently an IB analyst, so no history of investing for other people) They are also asking for a sample strategy, so how far in depth should I go about outlining a sample portfolio?
