Breaking into Private Credit from Big 4 Consulting

First time posting, I would appreciate it if you guys dont eviscerate me in the comments (yes I looked up how to spell "eviscerate"). 

I was just promoted to Senior (2 years out of college) in Big 4 Technology Transformation Consulting. I have spent the past 4 months grinding three statement financial modeling, DCF analysis, and LBO modeling. Does anyone have advice on how I can make a hard pivot into buyside/leveraged finance? Dont say its hopeless, I am going to give it my all
