Lateral from Private Equity to RX

Hey everybody,

I'm graduating in December and will be working at a MM PE firm after graduation. But I've always been interested in restructuring and have followed it much closer than the area I'll work in at my future firm. 

Curious to hear if anyone has any experience making a similar move or what the best way to go about this would be.

Thanks!
