Commercial Banking --> PE Resume Help

Hey guys, I am looking for some help on how to tailor my resume for Private Equity (or even Private Credit) interviews. I see a lot of tutorials for resume building from the Investment Banking side, but basically nothing from the Commercial Banking side. For some background, my bank usually participates in a lot of deals, but will occasionally get the opportunity to lead them. I work in the TMT group, and a majority of our deals are with Sponsors. A lot of my work centers around financial modeling and building presentations for credit. I have worked on a handful of different deal types, including LBO transactions, recapitalizations and debt refinancings.

Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you!
