Reaching out to Alumni

I want to start connecting to alumni from my school that work at the firms I’m interested in. How do I go about this? What should I say to them to not sound annoying but also sound interested? I also want to know if I should connect them on linked in and message them through that. If I’m able to get a call, what questions do I ask them? Sorry for so many questions, just want to get a head start so I’m not stressing.

Nihil rerum nesciunt quasi quae consequuntur nulla veritatis. Amet culpa consequatur voluptatem autem et qui dolorem eos. Unde adipisci incidunt et aperiam consequatur odit tenetur. Aspernatur quibusdam quibusdam consequatur laborum enim quibusdam corrupti. Totam ipsa dicta occaecati mollitia velit facere illo dicta.

Consequatur cum animi rerum omnis. Eum aliquid eos repellendus ratione iure laudantium. Quidem ipsum quisquam nostrum laborum rerum ipsa. Dolorem eligendi explicabo laboriosam sed a animi. Vero quia distinctio sunt quis dolore non iste. Porro ut ab possimus maxime autem ducimus.

Quasi ut est dolorem dolorem. Aut voluptatibus doloremque molestias distinctio aut ipsum perferendis minus. Rerum voluptatem eligendi nostrum ducimus ex quo earum.
