Sales to PE career tips?

-Is a solid background in sales attractive to PE firms when hiring?
-Does outbound sales translate well into PE roles? (Sourcing new deals/opportunities for the firm, cold calling, prospecting, etc?)

Mid 20s here currently in tech sales and interested in pursuing a jump into PE. Appreciate any insight or if others here have made a similar move in the past.
