Re-recruiting ft from a LMM shop, what firms to aim for realistically?

From a non-target too. I'd like to shoot my shot at the mid-lower BBs as my ceiling like Citi/Barc or a shop like Jeff, but I just don't know how realistic that is and if i should instead be focusing my efforts on MM shops like WB/Piper/HL

- Also not sure what firms tend to have the most FT spots open like I've heard BofA generally doesn't take FT.
