I wasn’t at a FAANG, just some random tech company in the Silicon Valley. I mostly just replied to some LinkedIn messages I had in the inbox from recruiters who reached out several months prior, and one of them was a head hunter that had contacts with the hedge fund and things picked up from there. Recruiters are annoying but they can be very useful to speed up the process, when you need it :-)
