Informal Interview with Commercial Banking and Wealth Mgmt on the same day

Hey everyone, first post here but I've been browsing posts for a year or two now.
I'm a senior undergraduate finance student at a Canadian non-ivey business school. Through some networking I got in touch with two senior managers, one is from Commercial Banking and one is from Wealth Management / Private Banking.
I'm currently working at this bank but as a bank teller/financial advisor parallel to school. I'm looking to transition up to one of the two groups that the managers are in for when I finish university in August so that I can later work my way up to something more prestigious like a relationship manager role.

**What questions can I ask during these coffee meetings that will help me stand out and make me an attractive candidate for the role?
**
My Background:
- non-target 3.0 GPA
- analyst at the school's private equity investment fund
- worked 2 years as a teller then financial advisor selling MF/Credit parallel to school at one of Canada's largest banks.
- people/sales oriented, would like to build up analytical skills to complement my other strengths/skills.
