Informational Interview/Coffee Chats

Hey guys,

Just wanted to get some tips on how to land an informational interview (phone or in person), what kind of things to ask during an informational, what kind of things to expect you will be asked, etiquette (do we buy our own coffee? do I offer to buy their coffee since they're doing me this favor? who suggests the spot?) dresscode (suit and tie? business casual? casual?)

Thanks!!
