Full Time 2020 Houston Recruiting

Hello,

I'm currently working at a big 4 firm (Audit). I've seem to come to a dilemma.

I was originally planning on networking out and cold emailing people near September (Thats when I'll be receiving my CPA) and hoping to break into IB anytime after that.

However, with full time 2020 applications opening up, I'm wondering if I should apply/network now and see if I can land a spot for the July 2020 start class?

Note: I plan on applying for positions in Houston! If any Houston professional would be willing to provide insight, I would highly appreciate it (the worst that could happen is you get free coffee or drinks out it lol)
