JGLS manages to marginally improve previous year’s Day Zero start of campus recruitments

JGLS Sonepat’s 2020 graduating batch have secured 24 Day Zero accepted offers and pre-placement offers with seven law firms, with 98 out of 484 three- and five-year LLB students participating in the organised campus recruitment activities.

Including 4 IndusLaw offers accepted on Day One of recruitments, the total is 28.

Out of the 98 of 484 students graduating in 2020 who participated in campus recruitments, 76 (out of 394) came from the five-year programme, with 22 (out of 90) from the three-year LLB course.

The largest recruiter across the board was Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas with 7 accepted offers, followed by AZB & Partners with 6 and Khaitan & Co with 5.

Trilegal and Anand & Anand each hired 2, while Argus Partners and L&L Partners each extended 1 accepted offer.

IndusLaw, which came on Day 1 of recruitments after Day Zero, made 4 accepted offers, according to data provided by JGLS.

Day Zero was held on 28 February 2019, with Day One following on 1 March.

This year’s Day Zero tally of 24 at JGLS is one higher than last year’s Day Zero total of 23.

For its 2019 final recruitments, JGLS had placed 29 into law firms, with a total of 83 jobs including litigation.

That is remarkable. Jindal has really put itself on the map in the past couple of years.

Let me repeat: JGLS is part of the Big 5 law schools.

Yes. If you mean NLSIU, NALSAR, NLUD, NUJS & JGLS. Also, if quality of education and international exposure/opportunities be the criteria, it could be ahead of NUJS as well. Certainly its way ahead all other NLUs like NLUJ, NLIU, GNLU or other law colleges like Symbiosis. High cost is the only negative thing about Jindal.

Good recruitments, but not Big 5. The rate of placements (sitting to accepted offers) is not even in the same ballpark as the top 5. I don't get why there's this immediate need to always compare to the top 5, Jindal has its pros and cons, an corp recruitments shouldn't be a pro, specially not of you've paid double of those in the top 5 to get 1/5 of the chances they have. Rather one can focus on the fact that there's great faculty and that it'll probably help if you're looking to go for an LLM after and if you're a part of the 1% ofc

Hello there, I will be graduating from IPU in 2020. I regret my decision of not going to Jindal when I had the chance. The amount of effort that they have put into the development of their students is commendable. I had a doubt about placements and would be grateful if anyone could help.

As we have seen that the big7 has already recruited for 2020. I have not find the right forum to ask for the places that are still hiring freshers in Delhi for 2020. I just know about Phoenix. What other tier II corporate firms are looking out for associates?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hey, going by the sequence, you missed NLUD on serial number 6

And NUJS obviously isn't even a law school because it doesn't have 'L' in it
