Switch from BB IBD to MBB Consulting after 1 yr as an Analyst?

Realized after consulting FT application deadlines had passed that I would be much happier in a consulting role than in IBD. I have an IBD offer from a top BB, and am now hoping to do 1 year as an analyst and try and transition to consulting after (MBB preferably). I'd be willing to start over as a 1st year Business Analyst in consulting.


How can I do this? 


(Know there are some old threads out there related to this, but any and all insight on whether things have changed is very much appreciated.)

 

I know someone who did this in reverse (MBB consulting FT to BB banking FT), I'm sure the reverse is possible as well. They mentioned they did a ton of networking to get into banking, which makes sense, not sure how it works in reverse.
