Need Suggestions on Networking

I am presently working as a system analyst. I have been doing the same thing for three years now and I need a change.

There is a new group being formed at my company that is working on a new project. The workers are consultants and actually do not work for my company but for a consulting company.

The manager is looking for three more people

Can you all suggest what I should say to him to let him know that I am interested in being on his team.


Thanks so much
