Some sort of group hobby (e.g. pick up sports, chess in the park etc etc) can be a useful one that I’ve had some success with!

Lots of the dating apps have ‘friend’ functions these days and also hold networking events.

It can be very hard - most of my friends are from elementary school, university, or work (places where we’re forced together) - but don’t be discouraged.

Best of luck!

Had a salary discussion with headhunter, who really lowballed me and told that the employer is not going to pay more than X.
The final interview is scheduled for tomorrow should I be expecting any salary negotiation during the final interview or after or is the number that I informally agreed to with a headhunter is set in stone?
How bad is it if I refuse to accept the offer? Will I be banned from working with that headhunting firm?

Very Noob question: First year here that has done DD for a couple of deals representing the seller now. Essentially all I did was note whether certain agreements have change of control provisions, and if so, what the specific language is. I understand what the CoC do, but why am I doing this? Specifically, what does the buyer do with this? It seems like these provisions should trigger but nothing then happens...
