How you guys got the fundamental HF seats?

Hey buy-siders, I am thinking about breaking intoHFand wondering how you got the job (networking/strongly connected clients/sales offered you a seat/friend?).

I feel like the opportunities I heard from recruiters tended to be quite average and I don't want my resume to be seen by lots of people (especially some of them might know my boss).
