Is it worth networking?

I’ve seen a recent opening for SA25 for IB in the New York office for this company. I realise I have alumni from my uni that work there in the London/European offices. Would it be worth networking with them and express my interest? Networking isn’t a big thing in the UK so not sure how to go about this?

 

Maybe one or two to be able to speak to Why x bank? Or other cultural things that are good to reference.

Other than that just email hella ppl in NYC those are the ppl that will help ur recruiting
