Where are the Customer's Yacht's?Couldn't resist. Seriously, your query is too vague. What kind of job, what kind of employer, and what asset class?

mostly for Hedge fund focusing towards fixed income and for jobs pertinent to trading and portfolio management

what is the difference between books for the buyside and sellside?

A lot. this should be obvious once you have tried to apply any of the models exposed in books written by sell-side people (i.e. 99.99% of all books) to make money.For fixed income you can try Tuckman's latest edition. Other than this you should focus more on papersrather than books.
