MS Finance SA to IBD?

Has anybody done the Finance Summer Analyst (Controllers, Liquidity etc). program and networked successfully into IBD FT? This is specifically at Morgan Stanley, any input or advice on networking internally during the summer would be much appreciated.
Or anyone that has done a similar SA their junior year and landed a IBD FT at the same firm or another firm?

Are there specific groups within Finance that would help me best position myself?
