Let's say there's a senior at your school who just interned at a BB. Do they push for kids? Do they text the senior guys at the firm and ask them to take a look at a kid? Or, if the seniors at the firm see your resume, will they ask the senior for their thoughts on you?

No
i introduced a kid to another alum in my group but beyond that they can’t pull
No, this doesn't happen.
At most, an introduction to the group or to an HR rep at an event. But you can mention them in interviews and gaining insight into a bank (but an actual analyst/associate would be a lot better)
.
Yeah if Daddy is a group head
The MDs/Recruiting team for the target I went to took summer analysts out for lunch + asked for help spreading the word on campus / referrals. Not sure how much these count for anything but they did encourage input.
No, they can do a warm introduction to current analysts. But SAs and seniors have zero direct communication lol, half of my MDs don't even know a single current analyst's name let alone talking to the interns
Unlikely. Sometimes if there is a strong pipeline current analysts will ask incoming analysts for recommendations but even then will go through the standard process and doesn’t do much besides getting a chance at the process
Some times they will ask SA if they would recommend anyone to be a part of the process. Other than that, analyst/associate definitely has more pull.
Not directly, but for anyone on here saying an incoming analyst doesn’t have influence must’ve been a very antisocial intern. During my SA, I got very close to some of the analysts who were 2 years ahead (one year ahead analysts still in training). I would text them throughout my senior year and have still kept in touch. I didn’t know many younger kids interested in IB, but I absolutely would’ve sent over resumes to analysts if I did. Would really hope that others had a similar experience…
