Greet him, compliment him on whatever you've heard about him and straight up tell him you got his number from (insert) and ask him what do i need to know? Be direct and confident to show him some respect. Don't just weezle stand up and call strong

How do you even know there's a job available if there's no job description?

My company tends to shift people around every 2-3 years. So the job isn't open this second, but in 6 months when I need to move it will be open. Also, there is technically a job description, but it is so vague it could mean anything.

You can try to find out who has the current job and talk to them and ask what they typically do in a week. without knowing anything about this job, ask about being on-call for the job. Will you have to do job functions during your time off? What are typical work hours? Any traveling? Is it for a few hours or a few days at a time? Dress code? Is it public facing or internal, do you interact with customers or only company personnel? What about pay and benefits? Any other questions that you think of during the call would be good to ask, it shows that you are listening and that you care.

Ask about job shadowing. A brief call/email/instant message along the lines of "hey, I think I might be interested in this job you posted, would you mind setting up an hour for me to sit with one of your associates to see what it's about and if I might be a good fit?" If they set up a session and it sucks, you can just politely bow out - "thanks for your time, I'll keep you in mind." Every company's culture is different, but most managers look favorably on people who take this route rather than just blindly apply.

This would be ideal if the job wasn't in a different state... Thanks for the advice!
