Getting a Meeting time?

its my first day at WallStreet Oasis, I have heard a lot of good reviews about WSO. From my first glance WSO looks very resourceful. I am 2nd year student in Finance. I recently met briefly with Director of Strategic initiatives at a financial company and she provided me her contact info to find out more about her role: I need assistance on how to precisely ask her to get to meet her and learn more about her role. What are some do & donts when asking someone for meeting. Should I do it over the email or over the phone.

Thank you

Give her a call - she is more likely to pick up. If you get her machine, leave a message, and if she doesn't call you back, shoot her an email a day later.

what kind of content I should have in my conversation with her? My main goal is to set up a face to face meeting with her.

It is unlikely that you will be able to arrange one. This should not be your goal for the conversation.

Optio nesciunt aut et totam nam. Nihil dignissimos qui ratione maiores quia delectus. Commodi deserunt sit rerum neque ab.

Sint architecto praesentium fugiat. Excepturi quas quod quam qui. Eveniet et enim dolores. Tempora blanditiis sed earum natus. Cumque qui rerum quae autem officiis rerum voluptatum. Dicta at ea aliquam earum. Delectus et quibusdam modi voluptate natus.

Expedita fugit qui quis facilis. Et delectus nihil deserunt praesentium illum vel ipsam. Et quia dolor pariatur dolorum.
