Can I apply for Full-time Recruiting Analyst positions this fall if I'm out of school?

I'm one year out of school, I had always wanted to work in banking, but because of the bloodbath of '08, I took a consulting job as soon as I got an offer. However, I'm still finding I'd rather work in banking, so can I still apply to these positions via online apps (I've got only a few connections), and do I stand a chance assuming all other areas (UG, gpa, etc.) are pretty qualified?
