Credit Analyst to MM IB?

Graduated in June from a T30 (UC), and currently a FP&A intern at a captive auto finance company. Looking like I'll join the company as a credit analyst after my internship. Long term goal is IB and I was wondering how feasible it would be for me to lateral to a MM bank after a few months being a credit analyst?

Backup plan is to do my MBA after 3-4 years WE and then try to break in, but it would be nice to start earning IB money earlier and not having to do b-school.

Looking for any and all advice. Thank you!
