Appropriate Time to Start FT Networking for People with SA Position

The title generally says it. Currently going to a regional BB as a SA but want to try to lateral to a New York office (EB/BB) for FT. When is the appropriate time to start networking for FT positions? I don't want the bank I'm going to this summer to find out but also don't want to wait too long.

Nah not in LA - I'm in SF for the summer. Kind of curious about this LA guy though.
