How do you all sneak in an ask (for job/internship, pass on resume, introduction, etc) at the end of an informational interview?

There’s always a way to finesse it in, and I’d love to know best practices…

I’m always finding it awkward to 1. Structure an informational interview, and 2. make an ask at the end that’s in line with the conversation.
