The "Trading" part of S&T has been explained here. What about the "Sales" part?

<p>So then, how difficult is to break into the sales department. From the stuff I’ve read on this forum, anyone who did not go to a “target” will find it very difficult to get into IBD.</p>

<p>What about sales? Is it equally difficult to get into? Do you have to go to a target school to stand a chance?</p>

<p>And will being a few years older at the time of graduating college be an disadvantage? I am somewhat a non-traditional student in that I immigrated to the United States after graduating high school and did blue collar stuff for 2 years before deciding on going to college. Basically, I’ll be 24 when I graduate college. (Ceteris paribus everything else, how bad is it to be 24 when you graduate college if you are trying to get into something as competitive as IB)</p>

<p>The only thing that I want to be is sales. I feel like it is a fit for my personality.</p>

<p>And how would you rate these schools if I wanted to get a sales spot at a IB firm.</p>
