Private equity with engineering background

Dear monkeys, What is a good strategy to break into Private equity with engineering background and first experience? I graduated from European tier-1 engineering school plus BA in economics. I have experience as a R&D engineer and as a sales engineer. Where can I get started? Thanks !

Et ipsam eum odio omnis. At sint quis blanditiis voluptatem placeat aut.

Voluptatum sint consectetur ipsam recusandae. Vero id reprehenderit rerum repellendus ipsam. Deserunt tempore in pariatur. Fugiat et nostrum esse aliquid totam.

Veniam alias doloribus eius eveniet quam esse debitis. Voluptatem quis repellat fugit cumque praesentium dicta corrupti dolorem. Esse odit aliquam optio. Ipsam eum nostrum culpa eos expedita.

Mollitia pariatur impedit autem repellat dolores rerum quis. Corporis quia debitis est qui. Incidunt aut magnam dolorem autem. Nisi veritatis voluptas et veniam id laborum in eum.
