Can a individual with FPnA background apply for PE/VC analyst/Associate role?

Does this career move make sense ?

Main key skill required for the role and interview process in general, any suggestion for preparation will be helpful ?

You can probably try for VC, but PE will be a bit far fetched. Try networking with folks in VC from your MBA program and alumni.
