Going from CF SA to DCM full time

Hi, I’ll be an SA at a F100 company in their general finance group this summer. Since accepting the offer in the fall, my interests in markets has grown significantly and I have some decent connections w analysts in DCM. I feel as though that kind of work is both interesting and challenging. I’m looking at applying to MMs and EB for FT recruiting. Has anyone done something similar or have experiencing moving to DCM/ECM after their corporate finance internship? Is it realistic given minimal relevant experience?
