How does experienced IB analyst lateral recruiting work?

Title. Curious if anyone that has successfully navigated lateral recruiting can talk about their experience. How long were you at the original banking firm? How did these opportunities present themselves (ex. did you keep in touch with your network, friends, and headhunters)? How was the overall process for you? Thank you all!
