Recruiting FR for 2 groups at the same firm after internship

I just finished my internship at a MM. My group isn't handing out return offers until September, so I've been hitting up the people I've been networking with throughout the summer for FT looks. I recently talked to an analyst in our C&R group in Boston who intro'd me to a VP in Boston. At the same time, I've been networking hard with the Healthcare group in NYC, which is my #1 choice.

At this point, should I just focus on recruiting for HC? The HC group is significantly more competitive than the C&R group but is also a much better group in terms of deal flow, comp, and exits. I don't want to waste anyone's time or burn any bridges (esp with the analyst who's been really helpful and intro'd me to the VP) but I a) really want to be in HC and b) don't want to risk having 0 FT offers.

If you guys have any insight I'd appreciate it!
