IB Banks that need little to no networking?

Currently a sophomore at Liberal Arts semi target going through the recruiting process. I understand that networking is an integral process to get both first rounds, superdays, and even just to learn more about the banks. 
 

However, are there any banks I can simply drop my resume for and hope for a first round without any networking for? The shotgun approach should increase chances of an offer without putting in too much work. Heard JP Morgan has this approach but curious about any other banks.
