Then what about this -

Leave and go where, buddy? You are only 2 months in. You aren't burnt out, you are just struggling to adapt to your new life. Give it some time.

PS - I don't know what is 'crazy work load' in your books but whatever it is, it only gets worse. It also gets better. These are just phases. If they aren't, you are free to quit but at least get more exposure.

My EP asked me to use ChatGPT to generate a list of names for an in-house platform that was being deployed. This process took me 4 hours to complete because none of the 75+ options we generated were good enough for him and at the 2 hour mark he came to stand over my shoulder to micromanage my prompt engineering.

It is important to consider what kind of practice area you seek- transaction, advisory or policy

Some practices are heavy on transactions but not so much on the others, and it can be boring

Cam and Sam should be avoided, have heard some real bad things about the teams

Kco is relatively up and coming in tmt but the teams are nice- again heresay

Indus is a difficult ship to be in right now

Trilegal is the best in terms of work but say bye bye to any balance

Spiceroutelegal is a lot of PR and no work

Yeah bro firms like Wadia Gandy and C&M also hires more from T2 than T1. T1 NLU kids will break their nuts to get a job there. Fuck T1 law firms. The reason why these firms hire more from T2 is because they don't discriminate based on college and T2 students beat T1 students hands down.

The legal stalwart always changed my response to client's queries from active voice to passive voice and vice-versa (also made grammatical mistake while doing it), as his "review". Never gave any useful input. After an year I figured out that I should not consider his language changes and write however I want as long as it makes sense and it is not against firm's writing style.

On top of which, there are giveaways in the language that is used. You might often see it (1) using very complex words that wouldn't typically be used naturally by university students; (2) a combination of (1) and a tendency to forget the rule that if you can say something in six or ten words, use the six-word variant; and (3) extensive bullshitting (seeming like it's saying a lot when actually it's saying nothing) along with combination of using overly complex words and/or saying things in a very roundabout or convoluted way.

This is a MASSIVE order with global implications.

▮▮▮,

I have been struggling to find a job for the past year. I’ve given several interviews for corporate roles, but their expectations are too high. My experience is in compliance and advisory work, and my post-qualification experience (PQE) is growing, I feel stuck in my current firm as it is very toxic. How should I approach things differently to find a new job?

It’s been 2 months since I joined a boutique firm that pays decent money. I had great expectations and was looking forward to the experience but the work load has been crazy and I haven’t had any time to myself. A lot of people talk about the hustle and emphasise on its importance and I am scared that if I quit now, I won’t find anything else. What are prospects for an A0 who quits after 3-4 months of this grind?

i took law in ug to appease my parents, got the good scores but never found my passion for law, got into llm and completed with good grades, still no passion, worked in house for a mid company and still no passion, i keep giving interviews where a constant question is why do you want to join xyz company or why do you want to practice in xyz laws, truth is i don't have any other reason except for earning a decent income, am i just not built for this field? i have invested six years of life in legal education and i feel it was just not worth it /disappointed sigh/

Yes, but also no. These thing don't help us. Counselling for 500+ students will be effective? Counselling and therapy are expensive, time consuming and have a high failure rate because of how nuanced the human psyche is. Every time we lose a life, it has become convenient to slap a "go to therapy" non-solution at it.

We need sensitization at the student level as well. Kids can be cruel and no amount of counselling will change that.

Calcutta is a beautiful place. amazing food, history and culture. NUJS is in the heart of the city which really adds up unlike NALSAR and other NLUs. City is quite safe.

You do need to find your people as people might be very goal oriented at times.

Placements are mostly firms oriented as opposed to NALSAR and NLSIU where they do invite other organisations and companies.

The hostels and infra are a little old and small but you get individual rooms from 2nd/3rd year. Double rooms arent bad at all. Hostel washrooms are common so you might need to adjust

Teachers are avg except a few but I think only NLSIU has amazing teachers now.

Amazing opportunities in campus- lots of clubs, journals, events - you just need to tap in

I certainly had the best time of my life there except for a few occasions of self doubt .

So dont worry and go for it!

Roshan Thomas moves back to SAM after Byjus stint. He came with AKS but is now an independent EP. Does he have clients? Is he looking to hire? How is he to work with? It’s been the Manav Nagaraj show in SAM Bangalore - is this going to continue? Who to send CV to? Any one with any info pliz comment.

If you're from a T1 NLU or have a very good CLAT or AILET rank, you can take up teaching in coaching centres for some time. Also you can make a request to your university for help. You probably will be getting a stipend so you can take a loan from your friends or some professor

Heh. Guess it seems the problem is more widespread than it seems. Saw something similar related to Boss Packaging, although, can't comment whether they inflated or not.

Wonder what other companies which boasted about super high subscriptions and bids have done this / are just hollow.

Hey! So I am also doing a part-time work. You can consider the following;

1.There are some paid research assistant-ship you can do with academics/lawyers. You can check which faculty pays for research assistance and you can accordingly apply. Consider applying at Jindal where the faculty members do pay at times. The work may not be strictly related to.corporate or litigation, but you can make 5k per month

2. You can also try participating in essay competitions. Some of them pay really well. This is of course not a certain route but you can try.

3. You can also consider working as a free- lance writer. Again, this may take a chunk of your day's time but it may pay well.
