MBA 2+2 Recruiting

Hey guys - I just started my MBA at HBS and am considering public roles. How hard is it to pivot to LO / HF roles assuming I have GS / MS banking experience and MF PE experience? I don’t have many friends that have gone down this path and it doesn’t seem like a fairly popular path coming out MBA from what I can tell.

Separately, from an interview perspective, what is the best way to prepare aside from just having a couple pitches down cold? Thanks!
