1st Yr Analyst Hiring

Is it possible to apply to Full Time analyst programs after one year of industry work?

I currently work in treasury at one of the BB's, and would like to make the switch to IBD as a first year analyst after this year... Is it even possible?? I went to a strong semi-target, but was unable to devote recuriting season last year to job hunting (personal reasons), so I ended up taking the first job I can find in winter. I have a fairly strong resume (consulting and real estate experience), but not many real contacts at the banks. What should I do? Apply online? Some help please!!

ThankS

I'm not in the profession yet, so I'm not exactly sure if I can provide as good of information as some of the bankers on the board...

BUT

I see no reason why it wouldnt be possible. Try going to the HR dept. where you're at now, tell them about your situation, and hope that you make a good impression.
