Potential PE Opportunity...thoughts?

I saw this job posted on my undergrad career site, and I wanted to get some thoughts on it. Here is the job info:

Job Description: *$10 Billion Private Equity Firm looking for extremely sharp recent graduate

*Screening potential investments and monitoring portfolio of holdings

*Financial Analysis/DD and recommending to PE Group Job Requirements: *BBA, BS with excellent stats and scores

*0-4 years expereince, prefer Investment Banking exp plus 1+ year of PE, Mezzanine/Lending or direct transaction exp

*GPA: 3.5+ *SAT Math 700+ +GMAT 700+

Sounds like a nice gig, but I am worried that this is somewhat of a monitoring role as opposed to a deal origination role. While I realize that a lot of entry level PE jobs require some sort of monitoring of existing deals, this had a bit of a risk managing/operational feel to it. Anyone concur, or am I just reading too much into it? I will probably throw down the resume either way, but I want to know what I am getting into before any potential interview.

Thanks.

Where is it? In India or outside?

Initially, what i have seen is that these PE VC firms use under graduates for more of analytical work.
