Hedge fund/ long-only fund opportunity in China

I am wondering if anyone on the forum has sense on the career advancement opportunity for analysts in long-only hedge fund that focuses in China's A/H share? How will this experience different from a US-based long-short hedge fund?

I have the potential opportunity to work in one of those QFII funds, but would like to get some advice from the forum before pull the trigger.

Thanks in advance.

Is the fund based in US or Asia? And what's your background? QFII market has been expanding quite a bit over the past year, but I feel it still quite a niche area to work at in US. PM me if you want to discuss further in person.
