How can I move from Big 4 Restructuring and Turnaround consulting into PE/HF/IB?

I am going to be a restructuring graduate consultant at the Big 4 soon. After becoming a chartered accountant, what shall I do to enter a hedge fund, private equity fund or investment bank?


Do I go back to school for a MBA

 

How does one tend to lateral from B4 -> IB, is it through networking/HH?

Only recently saw Evercore opened up applications for ACA qualified individuals to apply to make the switch into IB, but not aware of any other programmes/methods.
