Moving From Boutique To BB As An Associate I

I have 2 years of experience under my belt as an Analyst at one of the big 3 BB firms (GS, MS, JPM). I moved to what some would dub a no-name boutique last year due to personal reasons (as well as wanting to move geographically, plus a very significant salary increase). Currently an Associate.

How should I approach moving back to a larger firm?
