GS Division Question

If I want to apply for trading at GS, which division would I apply to? Is it FICC or Equities? My other question is more vague: how do you show interest in finance, which is crucial to get into IBD, if youre pursuing only an engineering degree? Thanks.

the trading floor is dying, slowly, but surely.

comments like these are so naive and unfounded. trading still comprises 75% or so of many BBs revenue and aren't going anywhere. lots of banks are shifting to a model where traders take more risk as spreads narrow in order to keep revenues up.

Um, he said the "trading floor", and he's right.

Don't be too quick on the draw.
