How does Wells Fargo IBD do group placement?

How does Wells IBD do group placement? I saw a post from a while ago saying that they don't tell you the location until after you sign the offer, I have preferences but am okay with that since I'm gunning for a sophomore analyst position. I've been networking with one specific group there, but I'm not dead set on it or anything. What is the best way to position yourself for a specific group and city? Are junior analysts given group/location preference over sophomores?

Thanks in advance.

fuuuuuuuuuuuckkkkk. I really dont want to do wells for a jr internship because I dont want to be stuck in Charlotte for FT. I go to a semi target. I can totally understand the whole low ROI for them though. It makes total sense. Anybody with a sophomore IB internship would be in a great position to move up for jr year. Do you know if this is being cancelled starting summer 2020 or summer 2021? Im a freshman and I'm pretty sure summer 2020 recruiting is done for them and Im pretty sure they took sophs for that.
