What is Corporate Banking and how does recruiting work?

Hey currently a student who got interested in banking but realized IB recruiting is basically over. Found out about corporate banking and wanted to learn more. Got a basic understanding of it but would love to more know and moreover how does recruiting work:
- Is networking important?
- What are the typical timelines before they close applications?
- etc.
