Speaking With The CEO - Advice?

Hey, so I'm speaking on the phone with the President of a bank I am hoping to join. They are planning to grow one of their sector groups in the next couple months, and if this goes well, my contact (board member who has been pushing hard for me) said I'll get a chance to meet the current team and ultimately a potential opportunity to interview and join up.

I've never talked to a President of a bank before, and was wondering if you guys have any advice for me. I know these topics are viewed as kind of dumb because a lot of it is personality and common sense, but and good questions or insight would help calm me down. Thanks
