Is it too late for IB or still there's any possibility?

As the title suggests, I have been looking to break into IB and recently got my MBA from T30 school in Midwest. I know that was the best shot to get into IB and honestly speaking, I tried my best, but location didn't help much as I was only able to score 1 Superday through rigorous networking only to lose it to a target school candidate. I'm still in touch with the directors/VPs from that Superday and they had good things to say about my performance.

To get more exposure and networking opportunities, I moved to Boston and currently working as Senior Credit Analyst (CRE) at a regional bank here. My pre-MBA work experience was in commercial banking (corporate credit) space of 5 years back in India

Is there any possibility that I could still break into IB or it's too late now? Is yes, please suggest the path I can follow.
