Cannot decide on desk! HELP

Hi everyone, I am starting a BB bank sales and trading internship in the summer and have been given the below options in which I need to put my top 3 choices.

Any advice on explaining any of day to day or functions of these desks (excluding Credit & FX) would be greatly appreciated.

Any opinions on them are also very welcome. Thanks a lot guys!

• Credit Sales & Trading • FX Sales & Trading • Prime Sales & Trading • Quantitative Investment Strategy • Rates Sales • Strategic Solutions and Origination Sales and Trading • Cross Asset Sales & Trading • Equity Liquid Markets Sales & Trading • Fixed Income Financing Sales & Trading
