Hedge Fund LinkedIn Review

“My meeting with Kevin Lee was super helpful and went well beyond what I originally expected. We met to discuss my LinkedIn profile, but the conversation also covered the hedge fund space and how I’m thinking about my career as a whole. I really appreciated being able to talk about both how I present myself professionally and the broader direction I want to take. As someone interested in hedge funds but also exploring other paths in finance, it was helpful to have a conversation that connected my profile to my actual interests and goals. Kevin gave me a lot to think about, and I left feeling clearer about my next steps. Overall, I really appreciated his time and willingness to go beyond the original purpose of our meeting.”

Hedge Fund Mock Interview

“He was very responsive and prepared for the meeting. He actually read the JD, resume, and looked up linkedin which sometimes other mentors doesn't actually go over those to prepare things beforehand. I appreciate his direct comments I think it saved time and actually helped me to know exactly where to improve. I also appreciated him admitting if he doesn't know about specific HF strategy. Only thing I'd suggest for him is probably sending actionable key takeaways after the meeting because other mentors did and that was very helpful. ”

Cramer is a bum. Ever seen the daily show interviews?

"You are 59. When you lie upon your deathbed, how will you reflect upon your legacy?"

Damn, that's pretty harsh considering Cramer buried his Dad last week.

I'm surprised more micro cap "hedge funds" haven't considered taking up the strategy of putting up a substantial portion of their capital in activist campaigns against sub-$100mm companies. Probably the easiest way to get press, especially with companies that are nominally led by people who are followed by financial media.

There are literally like 3,500 microcap hedge funds doing exactly this.

My fund invests primarily in micro/small cap. Promo is part of our life. Stocks are so illiquid any boost can result in substantial gains. We need liquidity

Amet laboriosam ipsa error enim eveniet quasi praesentium. Eum tenetur rem reiciendis ad in. Facilis a nam sint et aliquid eum impedit aut. Ipsa ut modi ad saepe illum.

Ullam sequi voluptatem sit quasi recusandae omnis. Saepe quasi qui veritatis magnam architecto velit. Illum beatae qui aliquam rerum odit.
