Structured Credit

Hey Guys,

Im an incoming operations intern at a credit fund. I am looking to do high yield/distressed credit. I do not believe they have an actual fund focused on that but they have a desk. They also have structured products desk. How can I break into the distressed credit space? Are structured Products considered high yield?
