RE: Cold-Email
Hey,
I have secured an internship with a value oriented investment partnership (it's a hedge fund), but it is for the spring and winter. I recently got an e-mail back from a fund that said my background was "impressive," but they do not have any plans of hiring interns for the summer.
Would it be too forward if I asked the GP (who responded to my email) to forward my resume to other managers he maintains a dialogue with? I have a lot of other leads, by the way.
One more question:
Do you think a manager that structured his fund in January would be open to summer interns? I know he has started the recruiting process for FT hires.
Thanks a lot, sorry for any typos.
You are the only one who can judge how comfortable you are with asking him for this. If you approach it properly, I am sure he'll be open to help you.
Thanks, I will send him a thank you note tomorrow morning. What do you think about approaching a manager that launched in January ('14)?
Good question, for an internship I would say its fine
He might actually be happy to have a summer intern while he gets things in order (cheaper). You could find yourself in a good position to go above and beyond in helping him get everything sorted out during his first year of operations, thus establishing a great connection with him.
Question for you. What did you find the best method for finding and applying to value oriented hedge funds? I will be seeking FT work in that space soon. For the time being I am primarily Googling "value fund" or similar, and sifting through those that are true value funds and those that are not based on their website. Did you come across any good resources and/or more efficient methods?
Same thing. Just have to keep searching and compiling a list of value-oriented funds. Gl.
