WhatsApp link for freshers group- not as active as old ones but they’re sadly full
This platform is meant for advice to lawyers and students, it is not workable as a #metoo outing forum.
If you were to name names, as you did in your original post, then this would clearly identify you and make it known to your senior that you wrote the post. Would you not be worried in this case about repercussions, as you had originally posted?
She is addicted to giving rejections without even reviewing the application.
It's like getting an automatic rejection mail just after you send your application.
Can I please get some examples of questions I can be asked at a technology law firm for the position of senior associate?
Thanks!
The primary factor would depend as to what is your PQE, usually changing of the practice areas isn't difficult for the first three years of the profession, the sooner you change the better it is preferably do it by the end of the first year.
Now when you are formulating your CV, draft the same in such a manner that includes the work oriented towards GC Role and then start applying to as many places as you can. Remember the chances of getting through is not that easy specifically when you are switching practice considering the firm usually require someone experienced so get ready for the rejections that might come in the way and simultaneously applying to other places. Usually the chances of getting through depends upon as to how desperately the team is looking to hire resources. Apply to Tier 2 firms also as chances of switching to different practice is more in that case scenario (assuming you are from NLU and Tier 1 Law firm)
Are you okay with it?
Is this what we (as professionals) are asking?
Rich kids going to a concert isn't some matter of public interest.
There's also the fact PPL (on pure luck) did get tickets legitimately so lmao
What’s the goal? I would love to leave the rat race and retire now itself, but being from a regular family I will probably have to keep working till 60 😭

It feels like a sarkaari daftar which doesn't start before 11:30 a.m. and has samosas in the evening. Good work life balance and chill life - you can go chill with your fam and be happy that you walk back with a Tier 1 salary! Can easily give AZB and Trilegal litigations peeps serious complex lol
It's that time of year where bonuses are near (for some of us), and splurging is expected (nah, encouraged). Do share what your peers/seniors/juniors/clients are up to this festive season. Can be the aspirational, the cringe, the chindi, and the genuinely sweet.
I can start: T1/M&A team in Bombay, the recently minted PA seems to have picked up an entry level Rolex and keeps trying to use it as a conversation starter. Except he was flexing to a young lady associate from another team and didn't know that her dad a member of the promoter family of a listed business. She was wearing a month's salary worth of accessories but this parvenu PA couldn't tell. But credit to the associate, she was classy and polite and humoured the poor guy!
Please leave more fun, gossipy anecdotes in the comments.
TOODLES.
For all others, we are still left with the same old Salaries. Especially A1s and many A2s whose Salaries are still lesser than A0s.
They try to justify all of this by saying, you'll be paid in arrears. But what about the earnings lost on that income had I invested it back then.

If you’re too inhibited or entitled to approach senior professors who might significantly help your career - you might not get far in academia. Asking for help is a big important skill.
I’ve been mentored by some top professors at nls. I had to approach them and prove to them It was worth it to invest time and money in me. It wasn’t hard but it was absolutely the best decision I made career wise.
Any suggestions? I like litigation so AOR filing offices, places where I get plenty of work and maybe a little cha-ching (unlikely) would be really appreciated.
I have a fairly decent CV, batch rank and internship experience in my NLU but I'm sad its a T3 one.
