List of HFs that recruit from undergrad (FT and interns)
Not gonna include the big MMs, this is strictly SMs. A few I've seen from linkedin/recruiting posts for FT and intern offers:
Baupost, Skye Global, Maverick, Cat Rock, Matrix, Eminence, Samlyn, Light Street, Silver Point, Scopia, Whale Rock, Abdiel
Not saying any of these have structured internship programs, but they have at least taken a few interns in the past. Anyone know of any others (for FT or internship)? Preferably keep it to L/S, event driven/distressed, and like $2bn+ pls. Much appreciated!!
So you guys just gonna keep this whole conversation to yourselves?
I think you're looking at the wrong type of hedge funds then - most L/S equity HFs operate like PE firms where prior IB/finance experience is necassary. Better to look at quant-based firms if you have the skillset because they will recruit out of undergrad.
Lol you probably have better career sticking to MF PE - more career stability than unicorn L/S equity...
You'll get over that lol. Public markets are going very quant/algo driven. L/S equity HFs getting smashed and capital outflows are crazy. More companies are staying private now than ever before in history..
You do know that quants had one of their worst years in 2020 while L/S had one of their best years ever in 2020, right?
