How do I approach a hedge fund

Hi everyone,

I have the email id of a hedge fund guy and I know the fund is hiring. Should I ask him for an informational interview first or should I just send him my resume and stock pitch? It's been a while since I went job hunting and my skills have become rustic. Help would be very much appreciated!!

PS: informational interviews are not really prevalent in my country,but this guy went to a top 5 American b-school, so he would be more accustomed to them. I am studying at a top b-school in my country.

Thanks so much!
