Just for your understanding

Firstly understand that pay scale isn't everything

Juris Corp doesn't have a good ranking in Gen Corp including M&A unlike other firms. So if you are looking for Gen Corp, don't consider it go for other options if u have

Secondly pay scale isn't also great, it pays around 50k.

I hope now it would be easier for you to take a call

Don't agree to this. There's fair amount of intellectual work. And would definitely want to understand from you what you call as 'real law' because for me any interpretation work is real law. Sometimes the weirdest statements from officer also test your fundamentals and you need to really think before replying. Unless you're focused on liason work for refund processing etc, there's fair amount of interpretation work.

In the era before Messiah took over, this may have been barely noteworthy since there was an exclusivity to studying at NLS (atleast within India), but now, this is hardly worth a post. With some 300 students a batch, domicile quota, and a small crowded campus that couldn't even get land to expand from the Karnataka government, these kids made a smart choice going abroad.

NLS is losing its sheen. The fact that CLAT kids prefer NALSAR which has barely had any great achievements in the past decade beyond the usual placements and has seen its own alumni leave as faculty, over NLS, shows you how much damage Messiah has caused despite the rankings game keeping NLS as number 1 based on history.

There is no justification. Some girl (we know who) was losing election so she campaigned for this through the feminist fringe organization of the uni (we knAOW who). The SC passed it without deliberation. That girl lost anyway in open category but will elected through women seat lmao

You don't understand barriers to entry for using BMTC, especially language. Ordinary people standing on bus stops aren't generally familiar with bus routes except theirs. Bus conductors are obviously familiar with routes, but they speak Kannada or condescend to you in English.

And before you go "oh why don't you just learn kannada", the language doesn't have an Alliance Francaise or Goethe Institute equivalent. There aren't any formal ways to learn it even if you have the time. Your native colleagues are busy teaching you ROFR and drag along tag along, limited bandwidth to teach you the language.

Thank you sir/mam for your kind reply. I just want to know whether or not we can avail educational loans for these colleges as studying there will be equivalent to having an opportunity cost which will be repaid in no time.

And I have heard scholarships based on lnat as well.

There is a separate mess for men, so I don't see a problem if a part of the Annapurna mess is reserved for women.

For 2,3 and 4, I believe that one of the spots should be reserved for Bahujan, gender minorities, and disabled persons. This will ensure that people from all the communities get proper representation. If you look at the people who have become convenors this year, only one person has become convenor from the above-mentioned categories, the rest of them are men from the general category.

We don't want a situation where all posts are captured by males from the general category, so a reservation is required. However, I believe that the people from all the above categories should be eligible to fight the election from the reserved seat and not just females.

Bhai deduction apne upar hota hai wo 50-60K v ja skta hai. Mera khud senior hai BJS mai uska 1.01-1.04L (bachelor hai) ke ass pass after deduction bnta hai.

Or uski video follow krte ho too aache se dekho usne bola hai jis judge ka slip hai usne bahut se allowances liye hi nhi hai.

Hi! I'm sorry for framing my response like that. I meant that it would be v gross considering there is a significant age gap. I understand that one may flirt despite age gaps but idt that is the case here. Some people at the firm also think so but he has not made any inappropriate remarks etc so I don't want to lable him as such. I just want to get more work and idk how to get it. Sorry

Gender in the context of gendered roles , stereotypes and behaviour can be social. Sex is a biological category though. What is sex if it’s not the same thing you see in cows and bulls, roosters and hens and dogs and bitches ? Mammals are sexually dimorphic. Rarely some species are not - clownfish, and when you go to single cell organisms that gets even worse - algae.

None of those animals have a gender role , stereotype or identity. Unless the claim is human beings are unlike other beasts found in nature - sorry to say that sex is absolutely biological.

Yes firms like tta and indus do not get recognised for their great culture, but maybe it's someone's exp in some specific team. But CAM is Definitely do receive the benefit of doubt

Also @kian thanks for allowing my comment on allegations below, hope it stays and isn't trampled by the HR

Everyone in India, hates khalistan movement and those who support it, they will even justify extra judicial killings, but they will keep electing MPs and MLAs, who go on to become CMs and Cabinet Ministers who keep peddling rhetoric of Hindu Rashtra, 10 years back I didn't hear anyone talking about khalistan but all of a sudden, hindu khatre me hai, every Sikh protestor is khalistani, there are no takers for this movement in Punjab rn, but If the government keeps stroking the Hindu nation rhetoric and UCC card, there will be and it would be a monster of our own making.

Do non-NLU state uni (colleges affiliated wt state unis, doing great in lit and dr teams, but hardly in corp) make it into corp based teams in T1? If so, what is the general expectation? I have done 3-4 corp T1-2 range internships from a similar background, but nothing seems to convert, despite great feedback post internship.

Iss insta post ke first line mae likha hai "believes" there difference if having credible evidence also believing in absurdy is your choice but alleging is not you have to learn about international diplokmacy. Canda has promineltly suported terriostd that why Air india flight bombimg in which these supporter of movement was involved any many preliminary reprot of kanishka invetsigation have showed hand of these sepratist but due to outburst of public has removed specific word

Guys, remember that LI posts make a difference. Time to bring out stories of sexual harassment, sexual assault and even non-sexual bullying and ragging. Both college students and alumni at firms, think tanks etc should be held accountable.

And please let’s not focus just on GNLU. Even star NLSIU/NALSAR/NLUD students and alumni have done it. Some names have been in the public domain for many years..

It's a very important question, how do lawyers stay in touch with friends and family, considering the fact that they are mostly away from home most of the time at their jobs. Also, touch with college friends also kind of fades away as everyone takes up different career paths, and no WFH means can't think of settling in hometown ever in the future. Whats left then?

I was going to suggest he is likely a garden-variety misogynist, and then you chimed in with your little ageist comment. So perhaps he's identified your reflexive disrespect for a diverse workplace and decided to let you gaslight yourself into another firm. Sounds like that might happen in (checks watch) about a month.

As you can see from this report, nearly 80% of UK law firms offer TCs to graduates from Russell Group universities. Therefore, if that is your goal, choose ANY Russell Group Uni over ANY NLU. The guy giving advice to choose “till UCL/Imperial”is talking nonsense. Imperial doesn’t even have a law school! And the report shows that UCL gets fewer TCs than even Birmingham and Manchester! That’s because UK employers don’t fuss over rankings. They treat Russell Groups as a largely homogenous tier, with Oxbridge having only a slight edge, as the report shows.

Apart from a TC, your options can also include studying for the bar or doing an MBA in the UK. All very expensive, of course.

However, if you wish to stay in India there’s no real point of doing an LLB abroad. Go to any NLU or Jindal or Symbi. But you can do an LLM and return, applying to the usual suspects: Oxbridge, LSE, KCL, UCL, QMUL, SOAS and Warwick. Edinburgh is very good too, but the weather keeps people away.

May be you are being paranoid.

Can't comment upon the team dynamics as I do not know anything about it. Did you have more people join the team? Has he repeatedly criticized your work but ended up giving up, hence is icing you out? Or may be he is someone who is a staunch believer of WLB. Does he behave in the same manner with your other colleagues?

Condemns sikh assisination? I am appauled by your distortion of my words, Kian. Do you know that Nijjar was wanted by the interpol? Did you know that he evded arrest by leaving the country with forged documents? Do you know that his support for the k movement comes with an AK47 in hand (with ISI FUNDING)? Shame on you Kian for sanitising the heading the way you have. Your distortion of the heading tantamounts to making the K-Movement into a Sikh Movement. How irresponsible of you! Aren’t you a lawyer? The k movement is not a sikh movement because it doesn't represent the aspirations of the majority of sikhs. It’s a minority / fringe movement. Kindly reflect that with honesty.

Idk why but my old post was deleted by mods. Genuine Q.

1.why is nls mess (anapurna) only for women? Not just that some girls will literally ask u to move if u dare sit there for 0.1 second.

2. 1/2 convenorship for women. On what basis!

3. 1/2 SBA prez women?

4.1/2 CR women?

Why?

Given that there are about 1/3 women, shouldnt a 1/3 reservation be given?

What is the justification?

▮▮▮

For prospective employees-

1. CAM pays the lowest in tier 1s at all levels. Their first year partners do not make 1 cr, while even some top tier 2 firms are matching this.2. CAM has in the recent past RETRACTED offers (PPOs AND Day 0) and DEFERRED pay, something even tier 2 firms except HSA won't do.

3. CAM delays the official confirmation letter for reason 2 by several months

4. CAM is also probably the only firm that fires its junior employees, and puts them in exceptionally toxic conditions so they leave themselves (like 10X AZB Mumbai)

5. CAM HR is the most tricky, deceiving and selfish of all firms ever, they stop correspondence suddenly, they dont intimate stuff on time, they purposely delay interviews and offers, they have in the past took interviews and then told people they dont have vacancies

6. Most nepotistic firm ever, everything works on contacts. They hire top govt officials at top positions to bribe officials and make connects somehow, but unfortunately get caught all the time, because not only is their practice so illegal, they also dont know to respect client privilege and will dump everyone but the top legion for their benefit, even imposing liability on employees.

In general-

3. CAM has been subject of criminal investigations and a raid (https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/banking/finance/banking/pnb-fraud-cbi-raids-top-mumbai-law-firm/articleshow/63082929.cms?from=mdr) because of their illegal and unethical practices. No other firm has this in their name

4. This firm regularly deceives clients and puts them in pending litigation

5. Their corp teams COPY work from other firms on their drafts and calls it opinions.

Hi folks after clat 2023 I have ended up in a tier-3 NLU. Needless to say I am frustrated and have been preparing for clat since 2 months.

Now I recently came to know about lnat and I am quite interested in the UK higher education as well. I have checked all the lnat and uk uni related threads at LI. But there seemed to have a mixed opinion about this.

After this gap year (since I have already decided my mind on leaving this college) - I want to join somewhere stable.

So till what UK uni should I join? And after that when do I consider a tier-1 nlu in case I crack them.

Your help will mean a lot.

I woukd like to point out that Kian/ this moderator has changed the heading of my post - to make Rupi Kaur’s tacit support for Khalistan more paletable. This is not a free speech issue or a bona fide call for self determination. The k-movement is widely recognised (even in the hinterlands of Punjab) as a corrosive misinformation campaign which is being propogated by fringe elements who have picked up the gun.

Kian, please don’t distort this post or suppress the sentiments of the majority in Punjab with your biases. Doing so would be a disservice to the TRUTH.

Here are my receipts for backing everything said here -

Come on @Kian bring back indexed comments. Now this reply is lost in between other replies. Anyways, to clarify, this reply was intended towards the person who said nonsense stuff about Iphone15 and MBA ROI.

I genuinely think Trudeau grossly underestimate how India would react somehow. Either that Or he's just v stupid. I think he does not realise how important india is to the world now. I mean sure, we are a poor country but that many ppl = huge market that no country would want to alienate.

Nope, the work in most of the corporate teams including M&A, B&F, etc., is more about structure and management than it is about law (take it with a pinch of salt please, just get what I am trying to say).

You having a well defined M&A oriented CV will not hinder your way to some other practice area, rather it will show the recruiters that you are well aware about the structure and management of one of the most complex corporate transactions. You can be easily molded to participate in other practice areas.

It was the same with me at a T2 firm last year when another associate at my level was getting involved on a lot of mandates and I was being left out. I was primarily doing miscellaneous research for the partner to help him with his articles and business development.

I told the partner that I wanted to get involved in the billable work and not dedicate my whole time to the work I was being made to do. Slowly everything got back to normal.

Hope the same happens for you.
