after submitting the resume

I will be graduating from college and I am currently applying for a business analyst position at McKinsey outside of the states. Our school is one of those targets and they asked us to submit our resume/transcript online before the end of March. MY question is should I still use some networking? I know 2 people inside the firm but dont know if it's necessary to "bother" them for this since HR should review the resume from our school.

"Is networking worth it, should I bother?" "Can switching to Geico REALLY save you 15% or more on car insurance?" "Is a bird in the hand worth two in the bush?"

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
