FT 2023 - Advice

At a target and struck out for SA 2022 despite having multiple SDs at places like GS/MS. I managed to secure a SA internship at a top AM firm in an investing role but, unfortunately, for my long term career goal it seems I would need more of an IB - PE route. I was wondering if anyone could provide any tangible advice that can maximize the chances of getting a FT offer (i.e are technicals more intense?; networking strategy) for IB. I was thinking of cold-emailing my interviewers for those SDs but wanted a bit more strategic insight before going all-in like I did when I networked and prepped for SA 2022.
