Quite interested in working in the hedge fund industry

GUIDANCE NEEDED TO LAND A JOB IN A PRESTIGIOUS HEDGE FUND IN UK/USA

I'm currently pursuing my undergrad in economics and math from the no.1 college in India for commerce[Shri ram College of commerce]..yeah you've probably never heard of this college.i've done an internship at Deutsche Bank for the IB summer analyst role and one at a smaller unknown firm as a financial analyst.. that's all my resume till now.

I've been thinking to go pursue a msc in finance from UK/EU(can't go to u.s because my undergrad is only 3 years)

Can I get a defined path to end up in a top dog fund??
