Follow up in an email or message and ask if you can borrow 30 mins of their time over the phone or even coffee in person to learn more about their role/career. If they do agree, go prepared with good and thoughtful questions, not ones you can find answers to by just googling. Ask about their journey to where they are and do a bit of research on their firm. Be genuinely curious and, if the conversation goes well, ask what you can do to make yourself a better candidate and offer to keep in touch.
Regardless of the outcome, even if you don’t manage to keep in touch, your actual application and subsequent interview answers will just be that much more robust as you can literally lift some of their responses as your own. You can then also further reference your conversation as a motivation for your application, which will help you standout versus the students that don’t do this.

one of the main things that i think people don’t realize when networking is that obviously the person you are networking with has something you want to get out of the relationship. but what do you have to offer them? past that just be fun/cool/interesting and be nice to people and the network will happen automatically. take an honest interest in the person you are talking to. if you lack authenticity people will sniff you out immediately and you will get nowhere
