Hedge Fund Jobs You Won’t Find Anywhere Else

Many hedge fund and private equity jobs can be found in the usual places: on job boards and with financial recruiters and head-hunters.  Yet there are literally hundreds of hedge funds jobs, everything from internships to senior-level positions, that you won’t find in any of those places.  These job openings face far less competition because they are not broadcast to thousands of potential applicants. So where can you find these hidden hedge fund jobs? Answer: on the funds’ websites themselves.

Hundreds of funds refuse to use recruiters and employment sites. Instead they rely on highly determined candidates to reach out to the firm through their website and career page.  These open positions do not receive nearly the quantity of applicants received for jobs posted on giant job sites.

While updating and improving our hedge fund and private equity contact lists, our research team often comes across jobs posted on a fund’s website.  Today, we have decided to show you a handful of hedge fund and private equity jobs we have come across just in the last few days. Many of these type of hedge fund jobs can only be found by going directly to the company’s website. Our high quality Hedge Fund / Private Equity Lists provide contact information (including  website info) for thousands of potential employers most of your job competition doesn’t even know exist.

HedgeFundJobList.com’s detailed state-by-state Hedge Fund / Private Equity Lists include website URLs for 98% of the firms. The above links to job postings constitute a tiny fraction of the hundreds of firm posted jobs you can find using our lists (and a few hours of your time of course).  Many of the jobs  you will find are not posted anywhere except for on the fund’s website!

Not all firms post jobs directly on their websites, but many have specific e-mail addresses for submitting resumes. Only HedgeFundJobList.com’s detais several hundred of these employment specific e-mails, along with contact information for the Human Resource Director or Hiring Manager. Others, like Bracebridge Capital, don’t post jobs on their site, but do have online applications.

Are you a University student? You can also find dozens of funds conducting campus recruiting by visiting their web sites. For example, mega hedge fund Bridgewater Associates conducts campus recruiting events at top schools for both undergrad and graduate students. Likewise, AQR Capital Management, a Connecticut based hedge fund, visits a handful of college campuses each fall.

Create some distance from the hundreds of applicants competing for virtually every hedge fund job that makes its way to career sites like Craigslist, Vault, or CareerBuilder.  HedgeFundJobList.com’s Hedge Fund / Private Equity Contact Lists are a terrific foundation for researching and applying to the thousands of firms you won’t find on any job site.
