The buy-side vs. sell-side distinction/debate is interesting because it happens on the internet and in real life. With other topics – such as “ target schools ” or “ elite boutiques ” – few people use the terms in-person. In fact, it would be quite weird if you spoke one of these terms aloud in an interview.
