Second year IB analyst looking for connections in MM funds

Anyone here from Balyasny, Millennium, P72, citadel, exoduspoint and the likes? Tried LinkedIn but haven't had much luck. Would be helpful to connect and have a chat about how to prepare and what to expect. Planning for a Q1 24 move Appreciate any guidance / connections.. To be clear, I'm not looking to move into quant roles

What's wrong with LinkedIn? Plenty of people at these shops so someone should definitely reply to you.

To be honest, there's a trove of resources online now about life at these shops, would read up and then contact BizDev via email/linkedin if you want to make the move
