Lateral to MBB from BB for FT

I just signed an offer for a SA stint at a BB in the IBD. I was really focused on breaking into banking, and I eventually achieved my goal. However, I realized I want to work for an MBB firm after I really enjoyed my internship at a consulting firm. How should I go about getting a FT offer at an MBB firm when coming from banking? How early should I start networking with people in consulting? How different are interviews from banking interviews?
