It's definitely feasible and I guess the best way to get the sought after profile is to be involved in as many due diligence projects as possible. My personal impression is that consultants transition to PE slightly later than people from IBD but it also depends on the fund you'll go to and how they are structured. Bain Capital is for instance more known to hire junior consultants.

I used to do Asia-Pacific PE (kind of like FoF). Now I do something else but happy to try and answer questions on that stuff.
