Recruiting for Consulting FT with potential return offer

I just wrapped up my internship in the CIB of a large bank (not in IB itself) and am interested in recruiting for consulting FT. I will find out about my return offer status at my internship shortly and rumor has it we'll have just 2 weeks to accept after that. If I do get the RO is there any way to contact and ask consulting firms to expedite their own timelines to this really fast deadline, or is it not worth it? I don't want to reach out before getting the RO because I think that would be presumptuous...
