Networking email template for FT Recruiting?

Dear Name,

Hi, my name is wso and I’m currently a rising senior at university studying [Major]. I found your contact information online through [Alumni database or LinkedIn].

I’ve been doing a lot of research full-time job research over the last year and have developed a strong interest in the investment banking industry. While I know you must be very busy, I was wondering if it was possible to get you on the phone for a 15-minute informational phone call. I’m extremely eager to gain as much advice and knowledge about your role at bank and your career path that led you there.

Thanks so much and I appreciate your time.

Best,
