placement process timeline - SA 2024

Hi, was wondering how soon I should start networking with bankers to see which groups I want to preference for my 2024 IB SA internship.

Is this something I should start on during the summer or next fall? Not sure how I can schedule calls with bankers this summer though because of my internship.

How should I go about reaching out to them? Do I have to start with alum or can I just find current analysts on LinkedIn and go from there?

Any other tips for navigating the placement process in your experience would be appreciated. I am fine with sharing the bank name that I’ll be interning with too if that makes any difference.

thank you for the guidance!
