So I suddenly found out I have an interview with a small HF after trying to get an IB internship. I know nothing about HFs.
Hi guys,
So my school has a program where they connect students with specific ibanks, hedgefunds, pes, etc who have our alumni. I was originally aiming for an ibanking internship, but I was identified as a finalist for a HF instead. My second round interview is on Thursday and I don't even know where to begin in terms of preparing.
There is hardly any information on this particular HF that I've found online. Would it be better to focus on more behavioral questions and just look at what HFs do overall?
Also, does this type of opportunity tend to help if I'm still trying to pursue ibanking internships next year? How is it looked upon? I'm a sophomore this year. Thanks!
Do you have a job description? I would aim a little more technical as this might be a TA position. They may want to see that you are numerate, have good reasoning skills, and possess some knowledge of finance or at least compound interest.
If you can find it, maybe take a look at a copy of "Heard on the Street" by Timothy Falcon Crack.
There is no job description at all. I just know the name of the hedge fund but I don't want to disclose it as to identify myself on here.
I assume they wouldn't ask anything too technical since I am only a sophomore. The first round interview consisted of some basic accounting questions and one finance question. So would it be sufficient to just keep on reviewing some of those? Or is there some sort of guide online? It seems that this info is harder to find compared to info for breaking into IBanking.
And thanks for the book recommendation. I'll see if there's any way I can check it out.
Go to their website and read the description of what they do and the associates' bios. That should give you a clue as to what they might want you to do, and would help you better prepare your pitch.
