Re-connecting with previous interviewers when recruiting with the same firm?

Hi everyone, First of all, a little bit about myself, currently a rising senior at a non-target, did banking recruiting last summer&fall but ended up with an offer from one of the two top valuation firms (Houlihan Lokey/Duff & Phelps). As full-time recruiting approaches, I am thinking about following-up with some of my interviewers in my summer recruiting process. Those interviewers actually had a good conversation with me in the first/final round, and all of them replied my thank-you note. I'm wondering how should I go about reconnecting with them and potentially ask about full-time opportunities at their banks? Should I send a follow-up email to them and try to set up a call first?

Any advice would be very appreciated.

This is a great idea. I did something pretty similar when approaching FT recruiting and it helped me land my FT role. I followed up with all my interviewers that I felt I had a solid connection with. My emails were pretty simple, just phrase them like you want to follow up to reconnect. Don't mention that you're looking for a full time position. Frame it from the point of view of career advice, then let the conversation naturally find its way to FT opps once on the phone. Make sure to follow up with them every month or so following that call. You can adjust frequency based on any recruiting timelines they mention.
