UMM/MF Analyst recruiting to different firm for associate?

Hi folks: 
 

I’m currently an analyst at a UMM/MF PE firm and, for idiosyncratic (and legitimate) reasons, I’m possibly interested in recruiting for associate positions to a select few different firms. 
 

What’s the best way to go about this without my firm finding out? Is on-cycle through HHs the best choice, or should I network with firms directly? Has anyone seen this/have experience with it? 

Thank you.
