IB SA in Europe lateral for FT in US?

Currently a penultimate year university student in the UK, and I will be interning in IBD at Citi/BofA/CS this summer. I am wondering how likely it would be for me to land FT gig in NY at a BB? If it is possible, do you guys have any recommendations as to what I ought to do between now and application time? Reason for wanting to lateral is that I want to spend some time in the US before hopefully going to B-School in a few years time.

How about doing Associate rotation in NY?

If you are at American BB that should be possible. Sure, it is not permanent, but gives you at least 12 months, and slight possibility of staying longer if you perform/network well.

Very little chance but I'd love to too OP as well as every other Londoncel, our salaries are paltry compared to NY :'(
