Variable and not a golden ticket but if US based can at least kick one of the analysts to do the referral

Still on you to not fuck up

 

I’d need some more rough detail. See below comment - reason it’s not a golden ticket is all the restrictions on the structured campus recruiting processes.

So if your family friend abroad can get US team to refer you then you’re back at original point. If your family friend is in a country where the MD can bend the rules more, great

If you know a MD at BB that can give you a recommendation, you will probably get an interview. A lot of the BB recruiting nowadays is fairly structured and they probably can not get you a job. Although this would depend on their standing at the bank (i.e Group Head, Senior MD, Rainmaker). 

What they can do though, is get you connected with good firms that have more unstructured recruiting processes (Smaller banks, PE Firms, etc.). If they can help you get good freshman and sophmore Summer internships, then you will be well prepared for Junior summer recruiting.
