BB lateral -> PE recruiting

Posted this in the PE forum but only got one response.

So here’s my situation…

I recently lateraled as a 1st year analyst to a BB from a 3rd tier MM. All my peers are commencing their PE interview processes, and I’m not too sure where I stand. I was told by one recruiter to wait 6 months (late summer) to start recruiting in hopes to get a position for the summer of 2011 or to hold off until next spring for positions starting in the summer of 2012 (essentially locking me into 3 years as an analyst in IB).

Is it too early to start recruiting? I don’t have too much experience thus far at my BB. About to close 2 deals which I participated, but I wasn’t involved with any of the modeling. Thoughts?
