PE portfolio ops / performance improvement out of Undergrad

Thoughts on odds for recruiting for ^^ out of undergrad? Either for junior summer or full time? What's the process for this & what are companies that have designated operations teams?

Any thoughts / experiences in this line of work compared to something like the classic IB -> PE Investing route? I personally thought line of work was way more interesting compared to other traditional roles.
