		<description><![CDATA[When I talk to customers that have signed up to work with our buy-side interview prep services, I try to instill in them that the interview process is really a long, sometimes drawn out, sales pitch. You are selling your skills and talents and hoping the buyer (the hedge fund or buy side organization) thinks he will get more value from you than what you cost. What is valuable to a hedge fund?  How does a hedge fund make money.  Let&#8217;s break it down as simply as possible: Management fees which is based on AUM Performance fees, or carry, which &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2012/04/hedge-fund-interview-tip-always-have-an-actionable-investment-idea.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the first questions I like to ask clients when starting to work them with our hedge fund resume service is &#8220;What are you trying to accomplish with this resume?&#8221;  More often that not, the resumes I see being sent to recruiters as well as those I see on my desk when hiring for positions internally, can be summarized as paper full of a bunch of activities and duties you did at previous jobs. In my mind, this is not the way to approach a resume targeted to getting a buy side job.  What question will a hedge fund manager &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2011/01/hedge-fund-resume-objective.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To start, I would like to open up my commentary to not solely hedge fund jobs, but also to the more general, &#8220;buy side jobs.&#8221; I will lop all research analysts, traders, and portfolio managers at mutual funds, insurance companies, endowments, etc into this category. In my opinion, for many of you looking to make the jump to a hedge fund career and are having difficulty, you might want to start looking for the more general buy side jobs and then making the switch 2 years down the line.

		<description><![CDATA[A question I often get asked when candidates are applying to various buy side positions (including hedge fund jobs) is whether it is better to come from a generalist background, whether that be product group from an investment bank (i.e. leveraged finance) or from a specific industry group, whether that be on the banking or research side.  In my opinion it really depends on what kind of hedge fund you want to join / be a part of. A lot of the smaller funds rely on generalists to cover a lot of industries.  These people will have a very good &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2010/07/hedge-fund-job-generalist-or-industry-specific.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I often get asked, &#8220;Hunter &#8211; what are typical hedge fund interview questions for XYZ fund.&#8221; Now, unfortunately (or fortunately depending on whose vantage point you are coming at it from), I have not interviewed at all funds out there. And I know each fund has a different set of interview questions for different candidates. For example, I know of one fund that literally asked probability questions throughout the entire interview process for one candidate, and then barely asked any for another candidate friend of mine. Alas, I do not have a silver bullet. But when I am in the &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2010/06/my-three-favorite-hedge-fund-interview-questions.html"></a>]]></description>
