Did I f*ck up in my interview??

So I landed an interview about a week ago in a coverage group I would have loved to cover… but they asked me twice if I was interested in the buyside eventually.

I am.

I was initially going to say no I want to be on the sell side for a while, but then they hit me with why the sell side and I couldn’t give a good response.

I basically told them that I don’t know and that both jobs have pros and cons but it was evident that I clearly wanted to go to the Buyside.

Maybe I’m overthinking it but it did not go well.
