Return Offer Advice for Generalist Summer Analysts?

Wanting to know if anyone had advice for SAs in generalist programs specifically in order to maximize odds of a return offer. 

Since the program is generalist, would it be better to focus on your top one or two groups or would it be better to try to work with as many groups as possible?
