Back to PE?

I interned for a LMM PE firm about a year ago and would've received a analyst position afterwards. During that internship, I received an offer for a consulting position at a Big 4 firm and ultimately left to pursue that opportunity. Now I'm regretting it. Any advice for getting FT job back at that PE firm?
