Leveraging FT Offer for FT Recruiting

Hey everyone,

I got a FT IB offer at a TMT-focused boutique bank, but before I accept, I intend to explore other IB opportunities (particularly TMT IB BB or EB in the NYC area). 

I have already networked with several banks I am interested in, but I am unsure how I can best leverage my offer. Should I continue networking or apply through the general process?
