In reply to Md Ashraful Malek. As stated repeatedly in the article, they are a mix of both, and some have become more like PE firms over time.

In reply to M&I - Brian. Are the Activist Hedge Funds more like the L/S single manager funds or they share more similar traits with PE. I know its quite relative question but what's your thoughts?

In reply to Md Ashraful Malek. Can't really say, as it is 100% dependent on your experience, networking, and ability to present good ideas in interviews. Hedge fund recruiting is more ability-driven and less prestige-driven than PE recruiting.

How likely is it to break into a fund like Elliott or Trian only after a few years of stint in IB( that too in Singapore/London), followed by an MBA in the US .
