Based on the most helpful WSO content, the recruiting timelines for L/S (Long/Short) hedge funds and activist hedge funds can differ from the on-cycle recruiting of private equity. Here's what can be inferred from the context:
Activist Hedge Funds: The timeline for activist hedge funds is not explicitly mentioned as being on-cycle with private equity. However, it is noted that activist funds tend to keep a small number of heads, which implies a less structured and potentially more sporadic recruiting process. Stability in these roles can be influenced by factors such as the fundraising cycle and the longevity of the fund's founder.
L/S Hedge Funds: Similarly, there is no direct mention of L/S hedge funds recruiting on the same cycle as private equity. The context suggests that the path from investment banking (IB) to upper-middle-market (UMM) or mega-fund (MF) private equity (PE) and then to an activist hedge fund is more common, which may indicate that L/S hedge funds have a different recruiting timeline.
In summary, while the context does not provide a definitive answer about on-cycle recruiting for L/S and activist hedge funds, it suggests that these funds may not adhere to the same strict on-cycle timeline as private equity funds. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on recruiting timelines, it would be advisable to reach out to industry professionals or headhunters who specialize in these areas.
