So I'll be meeting with one of the hiring manager for a coffee. This is going to be informal and not an interview. I'm not sure how this works. If you all can guide me what kind of conversation should i start with? how should I be dressed up? What are the key areas that i should focus my discussion on?

Thanks,

I didn't particularly enjoy either role and am not interested in moving over to the buy-side or some monotonous FP&A role. Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
