Houlihan Lokey Recruiting Starting in November?

I'm a current sophomore, and I just noticed that Houlihan Lokey posted 2025 Summer Analyst positions in LA, but we're only in November.

Is there something I'm not understanding here or is HL really recruiting this early? I thought the earliest firms recruited in February

If they posted last week, how much longer do you think it'll be open?

I ask because I planned to apply in early 2024, once I had a second semester internship secured and studied the BIWS interview guide over winter break (and a bigger HL network). I'm thinking of not applying to their LA offices (even though it's my preferred location) in the hopes that when they release applications for other locations, I'll be better prepared. What do you think?
