Phone Call with MBB Recruiter

I'm a sophomore at a non-target school and have a phone call scheduled with a MBB recruiter who said that he would be happy to give me more insight into recruitment. What should I expect? What kinds of questions should I prepare to ask him? The phone call was set up by a contact at a different office so I'm unsure about what to expect.
