Tiger cubs career path

What would you say is the most efficient and most effective way to get into large Tiger cubs like Coatue, Tiger, Viking, lone pine, and D1? I’m currently applying to colleges and would like to know what would be the best path to get a job at one of these places.

Do you people just not learn from seeing every other post that asks some variant of this get roasted? Or do you not know how to use the search function? Either way, both would disqualify you from having a shot so don't worry about it. 

 

I'd still give my left nut to work at one, unless they blow up there will be a rebound for many I'm sure. Tech will continue to be the single largest component of the major indices going forward regardless of how bad this bubble pop is. Slightly less confident there won't be some large outflows and I have no doubt some of them will never reach the same scale.
