Currently SA at larger MM RX shop (not EB not regional) in NYC and am looking to switch to BB M&A or specific industry groups. Is it too late for FT recruiting (at least networking wise) or am I better off lateraling? Do I even have to network given I have an IB internship with a likely return offer? What are timelines looking like this year?
