Doubt regarding IB recruiting from Canadian Bschools

So I have just received an offer from one of the Target Candian B schools for their undergrad program (Ivey/Queens). I have heard that top BBs and MBB have on-campus recruitment at the university. So does this mean that I don't have to network as much with Bankers to land a spot in IB as they literally come to campus to give us interviews? Or is networking still important even if we have OCR? 

I am quite confused about this and as I am a first-gen college student with literally no one from my family in finance it would be very helpful if someone could just explain to me how OCR actually works.

Thank you so much
