How to "On Cycle" as 2nd Year Analyst / Associate 1

Incoming lateral as a 2nd year Analyst at a BB. What is the norm for recruiting buy-side / head hunter outreach as an Analyst 2 + (or Associate+ )?

What kind of opportunities/timelines can we expect? Are they the same On Cycle seats as the first year analysts?
