How to move from T2 to MBB

I am currently a first year about 9 months onto the job at a solid T2 (Strategy&/LEK/Kearney) and was wondering if it is possible to lateral to MBB at the end of the year. Does anyone know how that process works/if they even recruit people with 9 months experience/how to manage it without employer finding out? And if anyone has done this before if they have any tips?

thanks!
