In a Jam, need some advice about networking

Got some interviews coming up for some internships with Big 4 firms (Deloitte on Tuesday) My feelings for accounting are ambivalent at best though. On a better note, I have a meeting with a CFO for a large corp on Monday to discuss future employment options in IB, S&T etc. Since i'm still in school (semi-target, good gpa), an internship is what I'm looking for and this guy has mega connections with some BBs and countless boutiques.

With that said, what questions should I ask him in our meeting? B/c I still don't know a ton about finance, i'm sure there are specific questions I should be asking (don't want to sound like an idiot) ? I think i'm leaning towards IB b/c I don't want an observational. Any advice would be greatly appreciated..
