Hello WSO,
Read Margin of Safety, love Seth Klarman, love value investing, and I love Boston. Seems like a perfect fit. I just finished my sophmore year of college. How do I get a job at the Baupost group ? What is it like to work at the Baupost group ? How does compensation work at the Baupost group ? What skills are needed to work at a shop like the Baupost Group ?

Everyone who has read his book wants to work for him, you're not the only one. But to answer your question, you won't get hired out of undergrad. That's only happened to one individual and they had a family connection with the firm. I'd start by building your resume up with experience in IB or HF work and then gradually attempt to network with individuals inside the firm (if at all possible).
Most entry level employees appear to have come from prestigious I-Banks. You can use LinkedIn to see their backgrounds....
