What the hell is wrong with people treating this as normal and giving suggestions on how to come? I opine that you go with a deliberately swollen or sad face to the extent that people see this person will cry and give up (They should be concerned because it is eventually you who they'll need to do work)

Both research and my own experience show that creatine monohydrate (preferably Creapure) supports brain function, esp. under conditions of sleep deprivation and mental fatigue. For those considering it, it typically takes about a month to fully load into your system if you take 3-5 grams daily in the morning (preferably with carbs - milk, juice, or water with a fruit like banana). You shouldn't expect any significant results before that. Personally, creatine monohydrate helped me get through years of sleep deprivation with at least some level of brain functioning. But beyond a point, it won’t be enough. You can push yourself for 2–3 years, but eventually the system breaks down and mental health starts to spiral (depression, insomnia), and physical health gets even worse. While mental health might bounce back within a month with the right treatment like Antidepressants and anxiolytics from a psyciatrist, recovering physical fitness can easily take a year, even with the best supplements and training. Also a kind suggestion, caffeine in a long run is very harmful, esp. post afternoons, so choose the alternatives, do not smoke or drink if you do, that also helps.

All in all, jobs and the rat race take away the best years of your life, spent sitting at a desk. Sometimes I really wish I had been born in a village with farmlands, doing nothing and just living in peace.

Sorry for oversharing, just got sentimental while writing this. I was thinking about it last night too so got a bit relatable.

If you are new to this field or trying to understand the job prospects, I don't know. But I think you are overreacting. At least on the front, that's why they are not telling you if they want to hire you or not - no middle-mending.
Hiring is no joke for the firms. A full panel discussion happens on whether to hire a person or not. It's not like black and white. Things like this takes time, and it will obviously take time - lots of candidates are there before you and after you. People wait for months before getting confirmation.
Do not expect outright responses. It's with every field, not just law.

OP here! I understand what you're saying but I am fine with an outright no! I passed up an opportunity for an assessment internship with another firm!(ik this is on me!)

Since I already graduated in May and have been hunting for opportunities since then, such an experience stings and leaves a bad taste!

Guys, please end this topic. What's happened has happened. Please move on. The CJI gave a convocation speech at Nalsar (where is NOT the chancellor) but ignored NUJS. Let's focus on that. Let's focus on invitign the CJI to NUJS.

Also, I am pretty sure no video clips exist. Even if they do, just move on please.

Just tell me this! Why do your NLU Graduated elite lawyers working in disputes team at a are still looked down as glorified solicitors and clerks and still briefing advocates graduating from so called state unis!

Thanking the mods for featuring his and further fuelling the disparity between the elites and common folks! Kian would be proud!

Tell me honestly, pakka tu wahi na ho NLU ko apni personality bana leta hai and instagram bio main < NLU 'batch > likhta hai, because it seems so! I get it because that would be the only achievement of your life.

It's okay, it'll get better! I hope you heal from whatever you're going through!

He is as good if not better and charges roughly the same fees as well. All 3 of them really rose together. In fact, GS is the only one of the three who was designated Senior by the Supreme Court, that too before he turned 40 years p;d. Rohatgi and Salve were designated by Delhi HC.

He was Solicitor General in the UPA government, when he was in his late 40s, early 50s and was also recommended for SC judgeship.

He hasn't been popular over the past few years because he has not been regularly practicing in India and has spent most of his time in London. He appears in some high stake matters such as the Amazon-Future dispute and some Mining matters relating to Orissa

It depends on where you land, really.

For a normal Advocate/AoR: Now, over here there are several kinds of people. You'd have to take into account the overall impression of the Advocate/Aor. The pay would firstly depend upon their own earning capacity. This earning capacity would depend upon: no. of filings/appearances/empanelments/good clients, etc. For people who have a healthy balance of the aforesaid, you can score (even for a fresher) a salary of 30k-40k. I seem to remember that v recently, Mr. Kunal Chatterji (AOR & Standing Counsel, WB) was offering somewhere in this range. So, for people who have good metrics, they will pay a somewhat respectable amount. For these boutique firms etc, the same funda as applicable to normal advocates apply.

Although few in number, there are also several Senior advocates who hire freshers as their Chambers colleagues. A good way to approach a senior is to visit courts and try to talk to them in person in order to score an interview. Since you're a fresher, the senior may not consider your application when sent through an email. So, try to approach them in person during lunch/tea breaks. Please try don't live under the impression that they will snub you - the Seniors tend to receive juniors asking for advice, etc., better than most other advocates. If you end up at a Senior's Chambers even as a fresher, you can expect a pay of around 50-60k.

Best of luck!

13-14 years in DJS (minimum) to go from DJS to DHJS.

It also depends on your rank in the final merit list, i.e., higher the rank, faster the promotions. The entire batch selected in one year is not promoted together, promotions are in smaller groups based on ranks.

30-32 is on the late side, so, so unless your rank is very high, most probably you might not make it to PDJ of a district, but you will surely become a ASJ/ADJ.

HC, 95% no chance.

Given the strength, it’s NOT as good if you have average academics. However, if you manage to be in the top 10% (top 60-70 (of the 5 year course)) - then you can easily get placed at a tier 1.

You’ll get best of the opportunities in terms of internship and placement, just that you really have to work for it.

Is that why most of the bodies were not even being released for cremation and the relatives were not even being told why or when? Even before NFSU was just a twinkle in Amit Shah's eyes, accidents happened and forensic analysis got done. Enough with the hype. We are talking about law universities. The place isn't one.
