What should I expect when getting referred to the funder of a top PE

Hey guys, a newbie looking for suggestions. I had a coffee chat with a PE partner. She is very nice and referred me to some founders/head of top pe funds. I'm a fresh graduate (just graduated from school), and from what I know all of these funds recruit from BB IB. I totally have no ideas what should I expect/say to these founders. Should I email ask for an informational interview and expect for an intern? Any suggestions on exploiting these connections?
