Got advice saying I should join PE right out of undergrad because I'm an asset to them - thoughts?

Hey everyone, let me give some context. I am a student in the US (non-target, graduating Spring 2027) with US green card holder originally from Saudi Arabia. I have experiences at BB corporate banking off-cycle, a previous MBB summer internship, a big-4 summer internship, and I'm in a final round EB investment banking internship for this summer. Everything I have worked at so far was extremely closely related to SWF work (including the Electronic Arts LBO and other deals). A mentor asked me, "Why do you want to do IB?", and I mentioned to him I would want to break into PE in the US. He then replied "you can apply right out of undergrad, if you play your cards right you can be a huge asset to the PE companies working alongside the SWFs". I had never considered this but it feels like a huge stretch. I was wondering, is this advice "fairytales and fantasies"? Or is there some legitimacy of what he's saying? It feels like a big fantasy in my opinion but I thought I would ask here. Thank you!
