About
Hedge Fund Interview is an independent publication that explains how hedge-fund careers actually work — how the funds are built, when they recruit, what they pay, and what the interview really tests — so candidates can prepare for the right thing.
Hedge-fund recruiting is opaque. The best information is scattered across forums, paywalls and the heads of people who've been through it — and much of what's published online is vague, dated, or simply wrong. Candidates make career decisions on bad information.
We write the guide we wish existed: clear, current, sourced, and specific. We focus on the modern multi-manager (“pod shop”) world that now dominates the industry, and on the practical questions a candidate actually has — when to apply, who runs the process, what a seat pays, and how to pitch.
Every figure is traced to a primary or reputable source with an as-of date — SEC filings, fund disclosures, industry data and named reporting — not model memory.
Each article goes through a separate fact-checking pass that re-opens every citation before it publishes, plus a plain-language editorial review.
We're a standalone publication. We recommend tools we rate as useful resources, clearly and in context — we don't dress recommendations up as something they're not.
The work is directed by our lead editor, Daniel Reeve — an editorial pen name. Hedge Fund Interview is operated by the company named in our Impressum.
Six in-depth guides on pod shops, recruiting, compensation, strategies and the interview.
