Wanted to highlight Prudential Financial’s hiring practices. They rescinded my offer once I attempted to negotiate the salary. The official reason given was that I didn’t “sound excited enough”.
They then admittedly gave the offer to someone who was less qualified. There were other red flags throughout the job offer process that the HR team should overall be ashamed of.

I try hard but it can be very awkward. However a well planned and executed event will give attendees a natural flow to meet each other, like some structure to the mingling.
Comfortable is definitely easier but I make a point to meet new people to expand my network.
When I was in marketing, I would talk to new people all the time. But if it’s not natural for you, it can be exhausting.
Set the bar low and make a point to meet 2 or 3 people and repeat their name to help remember them. After a few more events, you have a larger circle of familiar people to see to connect with. Do your best to put other people at ease and find a balance that works for you. Good luck!
