		<description><![CDATA[First of all, thank you to all readers who have sent me emails over the past few months. We are lucky to have such a strong readership. Secondly, I wanted to announce that I have begun development on a new layout / format for the site which will combine hedge fund and buy-side interview, resume and career tips, as well as a number of articles myself and a few colleagues have penned over the past few months. If you would like to contribute, please contact me at hunter@ distressed-debt-investing.com. Finally, we are looking for one or two advertisers to partner &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2010/04/how-to-get-a-hedge-fund-job-site-update.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the final series in our posts on hedge fund interviews. In this post, we will talk about the &#8220;take-home&#8221; case study offered at many hedge funds. As discussed in our last post about hedge fund case studies done at the office, sometimes a fund or other buy-side shop will ask the prospective analyst to do both an at home case study and an in-office case study. In a way this is an advantage as you will be able to showcase your talents in prep work and on the fly. For this post though, we will be exclusively talking &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2010/01/hedge-fund-interview-part-4.html"></a>]]></description>

For part 1 and part 2 of the series: Hedge Fund Interviews Part 1 Hedge Fund Interviews Part 2 This post will discuss probably the most crucial part of the entire interview process: the final case study. This case study will either be &#8220;in-office&#8221; or prepared at home. This post we are going to focus in on the in-office case study, and for the final post of the series, we will discuss the take-home case study. In-office case studies: This is where the hedge fund or buy-side institution &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2010/01/hedge-fund-interview-part-3.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In our last post, we talked about the first round of a hedge fund interview. This post assumes you have made it to the second or third round of the interview processes (i.e. your hedge fund resume has already been finely scrutinized). I have heard of funds that go five or six rounds and others that go three rounds (first round = intro, second round = more intense, third round = case study). Nonetheless, the rounds following the first &#8220;meet and greet&#8221; round will be much more intensive challenging both your intellect and your ability to get along with others &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2009/11/hedge-fund-interview-part-2.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is going to be the first part in a series of posts on the in&#8217;s and out&#8217;s of interviewing at a hedge fund &#8211; more specifically, what actually goes on during a hedge fund interview. Oftentimes, I get emails asking what sort of hedge fund interview questions to expect or if I have any hedge fund interview tips. A hedge fund interview is really a series of interviews. This post assumes that you have made it past the resume filtering stage and that you have an interview scheduled and ready to go.

		<description><![CDATA[Now that you have your hedge fund resume in hand and prepared your hedge fund case study, it is time to work on getting a hedge fund interview (or buyside interview for that matter). Unfortunately, this is where a lot of the guessing games come in to play. As noted before, if your resume and case study get in front of a certain portfolio manager, and that portfolio manager is having a bad day your shot for getting an interview has just got down. It has nothing to do with you and importantly, throughout this process, you should not take &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2009/09/how-to-get-a-hedge-fund-interview.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now that you have polished off your hedge fund resume we move on to one of the more overlooked essentials to getting in the door for a hedge fund interview: the hedge fund case study. You may be puzzled: Isn&#8217;t the case study the final step in the hedge fund interview process? Theoretically, yes. But, what I am talking about here simply a written up investment idea that you attach with your resume whenever send it out. You may be asking: &#8220;Hunter, what is the purpose of this? Why?&#8221; Just like when working on your hedge fund resumes, you need &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2009/08/hedge-fund-case-study.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In our first post on hedge fund resumes, we covered the &#8220;Previous Work Experience&#8221; portion of the hedge fund resume (or any front office resume for that matter). This entry will cover the balance of the resume which should generally include education and interests. Some hedge fund recruiters believe that you should include an objective / mission statement / introductory blurb about yourself. Generally this blurb is filled with MBA buzzwords. I believe this exercise is futile and would skipped over by a hedge fund manager for the real meat. I know a lot of you have asked for a &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2009/08/hedge-fund-jobs-hedge-fund-resumes-part-ii.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some of you have been sending me emails, saying: Why are you starting a blog about hedge fund careers? Well, admittedly, I only intend to write a few posts on this blog and then whenever someone asks me how to break into the industry or how to garner hedge fund employment, I can simply point them to the blog. Plus, I like writing, there isn&#8217;t as much to do in the distressed market right now (GO GREEN SHOOTS GO!), and the more people I can help out the better. Now, I started my hedge fund career when I was younger. &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2009/07/hedge-fund-careers.html"></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the principles that I tell my friends when they ask me how to get a hedge fund job is thus: There are two ways to become a hedge fund analyst: 1. Get lucky or 2. Use your network. Now, you may be asking: Why would I be reading this blog if those were the only two ways to get a hedge fund job. Or better yet: Why would this nut job be writing about a topic that is effectively worthless? First of all, I am going to show you a few ways to really work your network (no &#8230; <a href="http://howtogetahedgefundjob.com/2009/06/some-initial-thoughts-on-getting-a-hedge-fund-job.html"></a>]]></description>
