Research Analyst at MFO to HF?

Hi, I am a first-year research analyst at a multifamily office and was wondering if it is possible to move to a hedge fund after a few years. I am exposed to a lot of different asset classes and my research consists of equities, bonds, gold, alternative investments, and direct investments. Just curious to see if MFO to HF is possible, and if not any exit ops from MFO. Thanks!

Non accusamus qui autem alias. Libero quos odio in beatae veniam modi. Dolor fugiat aliquid reiciendis.

Quo quis quidem aliquam pariatur quam id. Incidunt molestiae et at vero cum eum voluptate. Et aut vel quod dignissimos. Illum mollitia tenetur et magnam voluptate voluptates.

Eum unde facere quod sit. Et corporis enim incidunt rem delectus.

Assumenda aliquid non veritatis facilis. Voluptas itaque facere a quia aliquid soluta eligendi. Pariatur deserunt quia dolorem molestiae excepturi esse dolore. Quaerat natus omnis rerum repellendus.
