Applying at Baupost

Hi,

I am deeply interested in working for Baupost in the future. I am currently doing my MSc. in Mathematics at one of the 5 best universities worldwide. I also have two years of work experience at a value investing fund in Switzerland (unfortunately no own research yet). Mathematics is probably not the normal way to go at Baupost but I was always very interested in business. Would you advise me to get some work experience elsewhere first or would I stand a chance to get an internship or something similar right after graduating?

Thanks in advance!
