Advice on approaching call with ED at BB

Hi, I am a senior at an Ivy majoring in the sciences. I realized pretty late that I'm not keen on going to medical school and networked with an MD alum at a BB. Because of my non-finance research background and other reasons, I decided that I am interested in ER. The MD generously connected me to an associate and an ED. I had a 'mock' interview with the associate who gave me tips on my stock pitch and asked me fit questions etc. He said I should reach out to the ED regarding opportunities at the firm, and so I did, and I have a call with this person the next week. How should I prepare/approach this? I am asking my friends but they are all going into IB or are quants so they don't have much advice for me.

Thank you guys so much!
