does anyone have experience with this position? or perhaps worked at a hedge fund?
can someone tell me what it’s like either working for a HF, or working as a HF accountant? what are the hours like? are you working 4am-2pm or whenever the stock market opens (if you’re on the west coast like i am)?
is there a stereotype for people who work at hedge funds? high-strung? coked out? cool, decent people maybe?
is it competitive? i know you have to be really smart to work at a HF, at least if you’re trading.
i’m not interested in purusing a CFA in the future, but i’ve always been interested in the stock market and investing and thought working as a HF accountant at a HF would be a great way for me to learn about investing without having to make a switch to finance
are there any other positions you guys know about besides being a HF accountant that would interest someone like me who has a deep interest in investments/stock market?
