Firms sabko issliye opportunity nhi deti kyuki unka kaam varna sirf sabko assess karne mai chala jayega
Lender (Kuch clauses hai apni marzi ke, kuch fakt majboori hai),
Borrower (Phir waqt bhi bahut thoda hai)
The counsels in between (Par saare clauses zaroori hai!)
I am wondering what does this read as? How important are questions in such high-level technical rounds? Should I hold out hopes?
Would love to hear thoughts on this.
Thanks!

Just apply to any and every opportunity you find by tailoring your experience to whatever the vacancy is for. It will be slightly difficult to explain why you're doing an IPR LLM and still applying for a gen corp vacancy, but it'll be ten times harder to even land an interview for a TMT team at any decently paying law firm team with an Indian LLM.
If you're dead set on IPR, then yes, realistically, your best shot is boutique firms and litigation chambers that pay less than 40-50k per month, and hope to work your way upwards from there. It's not an easy journey, but I earnestly wish you the best of luck.
There are dumb kids and smart kids, even among the privileged. And unless you were on the Bertie Wooster level of thick, you would never come to this site to get advice if you really had as much privilege as this person claims to have.

I wanted to know when will KCO send out offer letters and can anyone explain what does 'retainer basis' mean?
Also do we have to do a mandatory internship or will we be directly posted as an A0?
Any insights shall be appreciated!
Which T-2 firms can be considered who are more likely to not discount the experience but will give a pay cut which is better than a discount of experience?
Should T-1 firms in non-T1 cities also be considered?
What exactly is the reward for going above and beyond in litigation? Another 5-10 years of struggle where you barely break even in the hope of making senior advocate after 20 years?

Having explored other practice areas during my internships, and M&A was clearly the best fit, so switching practice areas doesn't feel like the solution.
For those who have been in a similar spot, how did you manage to sustain this work long-term? Did you eventually pivot in-house, move into a non-legal role, or leave the industry entirely? Any advice or perspective would be deeply appreciated. Thanks!
