What fund and from what school?
He goes to Berk. Ik of him thru a mutual so I don’t want to dox but pretty easy to find
lol finding a random kid from berk who interned at a hf is not easy... but anyway probably a nepo from there. Wharton/Harvard/NYU kids get internships from time to time out of merit

Is this the exodus point kid?
No
Lmfao that kid has like 5k connections, he spammed my entire club + frat
Probably winning stock comps + Networking if there not a nepo
Guy in question is cracked
no college kid is cracked
Some college kids are incredibly cracked
No
Speaking as someone ~15 yrs out from school now, being a “cracked” college student has pretty limited correlation with a successful long term career. The couple “star” students from my target graduating class who had the best internships and led “top” clubs have generally had pretty middle of the road career outcomes. (And there have definitely been great outcomes from my class)
Totally agree
Who would've thought the rigid structure of academia doesn't translate well to the working world
Where did he work?
Farallon takes dei interns sometimes. Weird place to work now anyway. Some funds occasionally take interns. But a Berkeley kid screams nepo baby
Why do you say Farallon is a weird place to work?
Well for starters once of their founders ran for President fairly recently, that forces some behavioral change
Almost 100% likely he’s a nepo
.
R we talking about the same person?
Guy I’m talking about didn’t even make it past the writeup portion of the interview (from what he told me). So doubt we are talking about the same person.
Coatue kid? he was locked the fuck in and got lucky through cold emailing but isn't going back there, doing IB at a BB. not a nepo either. super smart kid
you don't get to intern at coatue from cold emailing. but they would never hire a college kid regardless
