Blue chip companies, top law firms prefer White lawyers qualified in England/NY/South Africa.
That is absolute rubbish. Batch rank and the college one is from still matters to a large extent at the fresher level, any internship work is disregarded.
Thank you so much in advance!
All I got here was trolling nobody noticed the actual thing that I have seen.

For representing startups on the sell side, what are the typical fees? And for the buy side, including due diligence and compliance, what can one expect in terms of earnings? Gaining clarity on these figures will help us understand the financial landscape.
Your claims are high iam sure you are responsible in your stand.
Brands like Continental (Speciale) and Malabar are pretty good at getting that Udupi filter coffee flavour.
Why don't more people prefer chicory? Is it just eliteness or don't people actually like it?
Average working hours on a good day are 10-11 hours.
There is no division of work, you get to work on all matters, mostly NCLT and Bombay High Court matters.
No partner at this point has a healthy team because people are leaving each team. RG has a stable team with 3 associates constant since 2 years, however other teams have people leaving because of the toxic work environment. One of the senior associates in team BGD is doing good and if you get to work with him then it would be a good opportunity.
Most of the senior associates are extremely disrespectful and shout at you at any given point of time. You are expected to come to office even when you are very sick and if you take a sick leave you are given a lot of shit for it.
Avoid Team IS at any cost. You will be in office everyday till atleast 10:30 PM, everyday and will be made to work even on weekdays and there will be no boundary at all. I really don't think that WG would be the best option to take.
DM has a full nepo team going on. If you are an outsider you will be looked down upon and the team dynamics are not the best. He barely has an senior in his team, every second person is leaving due to the toxic work culture. This place is hell.
A year loss is a practical way of clearing up it back papers before graduating and also a message to work hard before you join the brutal world of law firms. It’s ridiculous that mental well being is used as a pretext to allow students to progress without clearing papers.
You join a law firm or a for that matter consultancy after an MBA to grind for a few years, get experience - and then settle into more sustainable jobs. But, when you do MBA after doing law for 5 years and job for 2 years- you set the clock back. Post the MBA, you naturally grow older (compared to your post law school self), and the grind can be more difficult, and stakes higher. You may get married, your parents may need care. Life's responsibilities pile on - as you grow older
My two cents - think your next steps through carefully, lest you fall in a trap similar to law like a mindless sheep. Your question as to what should you do next - unfortunately has no simple answers. But one thing I can say - it won't be one-size-fits all one..
@admin idk why this was not posted the first time I commented it.
Also Would like to know the Prospects of MPP from NLSIU? or even TISS or IITD or ISPP for that matter (the fees is due consideration factor for me) (fees to placement ratio to be precise)
and then there is the UGC NET JRF stream of things leading to Assistant Professorship, does NLU tag matter there or a LLM from BHU be good enough too, considering option for simultaneous preparation ease for Judiciary and other legal competitive exams in BHU.
All in all where is the Best ROI? or maybe what is the safest career choice?
My Qualification - BSc(67%), LLB(70%), Cleared several Defence Exams but didnt make it, JAG has very little vacancies to chip all in.
