Invited for a introductory meeting with a HF in college, how to prepare?

A HF is visiting my school for the first time to deliver a presentation. I think they are considering taking some summer interns and I have been selected as one of the candidate. I have a 30 minutes intro meeting with their team. What should I expect and prepare?

I don't know anything about HF investing (eng major). I've only prepared for IB interviews

Thanks!
