I would advise not talking to each one, especially if they're in the same group. You don't want to be that guy forwarded around because he emailed every analyst looking for a coffee chat.
I think they are in different groups.
This is what confuses me about recruiting. Say I talk to 5/7 people at the bank, but when i actually submit my resume, it just so happens that my resume falls in the hands of one of the 2/7 people I didn't speak to, so they won't know who I am, and will just throw out my resume. So isn't it wiser to speak to everyone?
You don't want to come off as too overbearing when applying for a FT offer or a SA position because it's automatically going to leave the reviewer with a poor taste if they know that you emailed literally everyone there to try and throw your resume out.
Just my two cents, I didn't email everyone when getting my internship (isn't in banking.), and it all worked out for me in the end. Just follow up with a few people from your school, if they don't respond the first time send a follow up, and then email the others if the follow up gets ignored.
