SS ER to L/S HF recruiting…slow for all or is it just me?
Have been actively recruiting for L/S analyst seats for 6+ months with very little traction, after ~1 year away from SS ER . Have made it through the case study for a couple multi-manager processes, but location/seniority mismatch was an issue in the end. SMs are my goal but have been very quiet, as expected. Even posting ideas publicly (VIC, Sumzero, LinkedIn, etc) with positive feedback has led to very few interviews. Cold email replies are few and far between, and it's always a "thx but we don't have openings". Is this just a case of bad luck trying to recruit in this market, or is it me?

Hey specialsitcher, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I'm here since nobody responded to your thread! Bummer...could just be time of day or unlucky (or the question/topci is too vague or too specific). Maybe one of these topics will help:

You're welcome.
Have been doing the same for the past year-ish and has definitely slowed down. Used to be pinged SM roles semi-weekly and now almost radio silence
I'm in the same boat.
Still way too many experienced investors out there on the buyside . Try MMs on very junior level, best shot.
