Dear FIRST,

How are you? It has been a while since we met up at and we have not caught up since. [I am sorry that I wasn’t able to make our previous dates a couple months back. It would be really nice to catch up.]

How are things recently? I have heard from [mutual friend] that you are really enjoying your job at COMPANY and I am very happy for you. I am thinking about a career change myself and I recently came across an interesting position at COMPANY. Since you have made [a similar move] / [are currently working in a similar place], I thought you would be the perfect person to talk to about this.

I would be interested in hearing more about your experience and general feelings on COMPANY and its culture. Would you be free to meet for [lunch / coffee] at your convenience and ask discuss the opportunity with you (my treat, of course!)?
