Hi all,
So hedge fund has been one of the most lucrative careers out there in Finance. Getting in can be very challenging but it is doable if you follow the following steps:
- Optimize your resume (key words, relevant experience, strong skills, good extracurricular activities)
- Apply at all the top Hedge Funds in your city or directly at Wall Street (Be flexible to relocate if needed)
- Network on LinkedIn with top Hedge Funds (send message, schedule a call)
- Get at least FRM or CFA (To start a hedge fund in the future you need to be certified)
- Get MBA afterwards when you have time (It is very good to have for management purposes)
Following these steps will put you ahead of your competitions and start getting interviews. During the interview be sure to make a good impression and talk with confidence. Emphasize on how you can add value to the hiring team and the organization. Follow up with effective letters of intent.
If any questions feel free to reach out. I will be happy to mentor you all.
Optimize your resume (key words, relevant experience, strong skills, good extracurricular activities) - Unless it got IB PE ER experiences and top undergraduate or graduate, who cares
Apply at all the top Hedge Funds in your city or directly at Wall Street (Be flexible to relocate if needed) - When did hedge fund start posting jobs?!
Network on LinkedIn with top Hedge Funds (send message, schedule a call) - No one from top hedge funds will respond to you if you don't fit the bill, see point 1
Get at least FRM or CFA (To start a hedge fund in the future you need to be certified) - this is the sign you have 0 clue wtf you are talking about
Get MBA afterwards when you have time (It is very good to have for management purposes) - you don't even know this is an individual contributor profession.
And you work in risk management? Ok that says it all.
I am just trying to provide some advice here. You are clearly a pessimist who has tons of limit beliefs. If you don't have anything to contribute just keep your mouth shut. Good luck with your shitty job.
Your advice is shit. Take this low quality BS back to LinkedIn. Thx
This has to be some sort of bot or troll
WSO just making themselves look bad giving this guy verification and a mentor badge. Imagine, back office risk manager talking about mentoring HF applicants lmfao
The fuck is an FRM? Go away lol
