Help me get an internship, /adv/

I spoke to someone last night who worked at an IT company. It just so happened to be the same one i tried working for/ getting an internship with.

However, he himself isnt hiring or looking for interns, but someone else in the company might be.

He added me on facebook and told me I should come by soon.

How do i go about this? I dont want to sound like an autist.

He wanted to give me the other guy's phone number but I thought it would be rude to randomly call someone and ask for an internship/ job.

One of my friends previously had an internship there under the same guy I wanted to work under, and now hes making $80K starting.

I asked him and he said "Just show up."

TL;DR

>someone who works at company told me someone might be hiring
>added me on facebook
>wants me to come by sometime soon even though he himself isnt the one hiring
>dont want to sound autistic

call him and mention that his college gave you the number as he heard he's taking interns
ask for interview for internship - that way you won't sound like you are pulling some strings

Well, I have two guys recommending me.

My friend told me If i don't get the internship there mentioning him, he can get me hired at his company and start at $50k

but in all honesty i want to learn from this guy instead of working with my friend. My friend learned from this guy, and he's making $80k now starting.
