I'm currently in the middle of applying to IB SA 2018 positions, and have gotten around to networking with alumni (non target). I first spoke with them last year, and asked them questions like their path to banking, what they like, etc., and have kept in touch with them.
What are some questions I can ask them now, given that my goal is to have them help me get a leg up on the interview process? Also, how would I approach them in asking them for a quick coffee chat? Thanks.
