    they may need a freelancer.... sometime in the future.... especially if you specialize in something they need a bit of but don't want to hire full-time till they have the client-base to justify it....

    rather than asking for an interview, you be much more casual, try to have a beer with the designer, and possibly your friend at the same time, be prepared to listen much more than talk, think of this as a multi-month plan to get a possible freelance gig or two, that may lead to something in the future..

    ..... and have a bunch of these possible "fishing lines" in the water at all times, as some turn into something and others don't...

    it's not the "interview -> full-time position" world it used to be, it's more freelance hunter-gatherer and I'm fine with that.... once you get used to the long-term cultivation of possible clients, you stop fearing a total breakdown if you ever lose a job or client....
