metrics and contributing to the decisions on the new structure to be … when was the last time a consulting firm added value at a law firm
In India ?
Everything else trade, litigation, corporate etc you can just acquire-hire at higher salary.
Sad to see how Suhail messed it up with his need to control despite not being a top 3 biller. If he had just lets the economics reflect in the management and let Rohit take over as RS’ rightful heir none of this would have happened.
Made about 31-31.5L as an A2 (including bill share)
However, many of my batchmates have already interned at firms like Dhir & Dhir, Dua Associates, Hammurabi, Khurana & Khurana, etc. While I know everyone's journey is different, it's made me wonder whether I'm putting myself at a disadvantage by not focusing on more traditional law firm internships.
My long-term goal is not to build a career at a law firm. I'm more interested in data privacy roles, particularly in-house or with organisations like EY, Deloitte, or similar consulting firms. My current plan is to gain one or two strong law firm internships (preferably in technology law/privacy) and then focus primarily on in-house or consulting internships aligned with data privacy.
For those working in technology law, data privacy, or in-house legal roles, does this seem like a coherent path? Or would you recommend spending more time building a traditional law firm profile first?
I'd really appreciate any insights from practitioners or those who have followed a similar path.
- "Push yourself to be a better intern"
- We also want to know your hobbies
- Be honest about your faults
- Maybe there is burnout, but clients are demanding too
- Work ethic is important
Also, great work by GNLU to have this podcast series! Currently the best such initiative among all the law schools. The student hosts are also well chosen: smart and good communication skills.

Sociology was meant to complement economics by researching into issues like how government policies are working on the ground, what problems are faced by rural communities in areas like health, education etc. Instead, it’s become a farce. Instead of doing serious research, people write articles sitting in their desk lazily bashing capitalism and the non-left, calling them fascists etc. And of course non stop gender politics insisting that men can give birth etc.
Although they are promising a "fair" enquiry, such an enquiry looks tough as the case has become the ultimate academic culture war. Depending on whether you follow the right-wing or the left-wing, this man is either an intellectual giant being defamed by racists, or a woke fraudster. Nothing in between. My guess is that the enquiry committee will take some middle ground. Ask him to go on compulsory leave without pay for 1 year, but reinstate him thereafter.
