Market Risk to Investment Banking FT?

Hi everyone, 

Need some advice for full-time recruiting. Got into IB recruiting late as I switched from policy to IB. Accepted an internship offer at a BB in market risk for this summer and still want to recruit for IB full-time and have already been networking. Not sure if it's too late and should just stick to market risk FT with a hopeful return offer and then switch internally or continue to try to recruit IB again this fall? I worked in banking last summer but did policy, so not sure how my experience could potentially help. Any advice on opportunities or moving into a more client-facing role in IB would be great! Thanks!
