Default Re: Applying for an entry-level job at a hedge fund

[ QUOTE ]
I am applying for an entry-level job at a hedge fund as a researcher/analyst and I'd really love to get it. The problem is, what do I put for work experience? I am 2 years out of college and have played poker professionally since my senior year.

Should I just say "Self-employed Professional Poker Player. June 2004 - Present" and mention it in the cover letter or should I elaborate on how it is relevant within the resume itself?

if the fund is notable and/or good & recognized then you are in serious trouble.

that is one of hte most sought after jobs and toughest to fill.

do you have solid grades from a top school? finance background?
