Salaam,

As a student, Im interviewing for internships next semester. I've snagged some one-on-one's with professionals in various positions coming up soon.

How should I engage with them?

Just be yourself and let the conversation flow. It's important to show that you're comfortable in your own skin. And I believe the things that go the long way are seeing your sincerity, composed demeanor and aspiration for a true career.

Walaikum salaam! Great advice @PwC 1; nothing is better than being authentic. I would also have thoughtful questions ready ahead of time. Perhaps ask them about their journey and how they got to where they are today, challenges they've faced, which qualities/skills make someone successful in that role, etc.
