I am having an interview for internship at Khaitan & Co. (Delhi) in a few days. While I am pretty nervous with this upcoming challenge, I have got words of reassurance from one of my law school seniors that an interview at Khaitan or so is just a part of formality and if I've been shortlisted for the interview in the first place then it's pretty much confirmed in the first place. I wanted to know if it's actually true or not? Also, how does the interview process works at Tier 1s?
Lmao not true, am from a T1 NLU and have come across plenty of people who were eliminated in the interview round. If you're from a T1, your chances are 50 - 50. Also, be prepared to answer questions on every single pointer on your CV.
Some T1 firms do not take interviews but KCO does almost always, even in instances of referrals. Their interviews are also among the toughest.
Come on , it is no tough. Just basics from your CV (assignments taken during previous internships, Articles/papers published and maybe a question regarding a moot court comp that u mentioned in your CV) + any contemporary issue of importance in the practice area you are taking the interview for.
Hey Guys! Thanks for you suggestions and insights. I have given the above mentioned interview and to say that it was tough, I would not say so. It was very short and simple, the SA was very chill and it was almost like having a conversation rather than an interview. I gave my best. Seemed that the SA was pretty impressed by my perspective on non-technical questions. I hope things will go well and I'll get confirmed for the internship. I'll try to update when I hear back from the HR. Peace!!✌🏻
As I stated earlier that once I get to hear back from the HR, I will update it over here. And as it stands that I've got to hear back from the HR Team at last. I am elated to say that I have been offered the internship officially. Yes! I have been selected for the Internship.
Thanks for all the inputs that you people provided here. I appreciate em' all!
Are you dumb dude? It's an internship, you are obviously required to be in a black and white formal. Maybe some leniency is given for not wearing a tie at times. But c'mon man, you won't wish to miss an opportunity to show yourself as a sincere candidate for future opportunities, or would you? You ain't a Partner or an Associate to even get started with such kind of leniency. It will reflect on your attitude.
Piyush bhai? Are you a troll? I've been at numerous internships without wearing a black and white. Pink green blue all shirts work for me. I'm not sure what are we even on?
Maybe you can experiment. But it's you who is taking the risk afterall. And I don't think that it's worth a try to experiment it out, especially when it's only a matter of one month. Though one has to admit that the most important thing at T1 is one's performance and not the dress one is wearing, so dress ka sochne se pehle kaam ka sochna will be more beneficial!
