How to Break into IB FT Despite not doing a SA Stint

I would appreciate any advice you all could give about how to best go about recruiting for IB FT despite not completing a SA stint. What does the timeline look like for 2021 FT roles and what could I do to maximize my chances of landing an offer. For some context, I come from what is considered to be a target for most banks and I had received an IB SA role at a MM firm, but it was cancelled due to COVID-19. Any advice would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks for your help. Any idea about what else I could to do to best position myself for FT recruiting? I ask b/c I feel for next year there will be fewer spots open for FT hires and it will be mostly filled up by the SA class.
