Non-Investment Roles at HF

I have a final round interview at a hedge fund in Connecticut, headcount is approximately 30 and they have $12bn AUM. I have no idea what to expect or what is market compensation because I can’t find any Glassdoor data. The role is for a business development and investor relations associate. I was told I would be discussing compensation with the founder of the fund so I’m curious what I should be expecting going into that conversation.

I’m in a similar position - I’m not sure what to expect. Good luck!
