How to full time recruit

Context:
-I am an Incoming 2027 LMM IB Summer Anlayst
-Non-target school with decent alumni
-3.6 GPA
-Current 2026 LMM PE Summer Analyst
-Strong leadership and involvement

How do you do full time recruitment your junior to senior summer and make sure your current bank doesn't find out? I know a lot of people in the industry are connected. Is full time recruitment even worth it or should I only focus on getting the return offer.

Would love any advice you have on full time recruitment.

Do I even have a shot? How do most people do?

I am fairly confident I have a shot at the less prestigious BB or some UMM. Maybe in other cities that are not NYC, Chicago, SF, Charlotte. Ones with less competition such as Atlanta, Dallas, Cleveland.

Thank you
