what is the best way to set up for global macro in 2023

target undergrad with applied math/econ background, interested in macro products and event-driven investing. I know macro was dying for a while, but had a great resurgence recently. For an undergrad dreaming of getting into a macro fund, where is the best place to start out of undergrad? I know bridgewater has an associate program, and some people from my school begin in quant trader roles at other HFs, but where are the best entry roles?
