You people keep crying a river about it. The sheer entitlement is astonishing! You don't pay anything for this site. Neither Kian nor the moderator is beholden to you in any way. If you wish to have anonymous conversations in real time with other people, find your own platform or forum that will allow that and quit abusing and bullying others. And no, you offering to pay for this forum doesn't make you any less entitled, it is up to the owner to decide everything here, including whether they want to take money from you and the pace of moderation. Once in 24 hours is fine with many people. If you don't like that, then leave instead of whining about why you can't have your own way here. I know for a fact that the reason moderation isn't being crowdsourced is because it is very difficult to find sane moderators who won't allow political trolling, abuses, lies and propaganda to seep through.

If one has secured a placement at a T1 through campus recruitment in college, is it acceptable to intern in another place if there is no explicit bar on interning elsewhere?

I understand that many firms look down on this but it is also the reality that freshers straight out of law school have a lot to learn. If an internship provides one with relevant experience, isn't it in the interest of the T1 to allow recruits to continue to intern until graduation?

If one has the inclination and bandwidth due to lack of classes/any meaningful activity in college in the final year, is it acceptable to intern at smaller firms that teach their interns more than bigger firms whose associates are so busy that they have no time to train their interns?

Hello Guys

I have been applying for trilegal internship for last 2 months through their website and I have asked for all kind of slots from oct-feb but what I have recieved is only rejection response.

I have a strong CV and good internships too. Can anyone help me in this regard?

Jindal and Ashoka have no comparison.

Jindal is a large multidisciplinary University with 12 schools/departments with 10,000 students resident on campus being taught by 1100 faculty members.

Ashoka is not even one-fifth the size of Jindal either in terms of students or faculty size or even campus. It's like a small liberal arts college with a private University status.

Jindal is an Institution of Eminence or IOE notified by Ministry of Education, Govt of India. Ashoka is just a state private University and we don't see it becoming an IOE in near future.

Jindal in its present status can be compared or treated as a private counterpart of a JNU or TISS. Ashoka is like an NLU.

In Law, Jindal is ranked among top 100 law schools of the world for 3 years in a row. No department of Ashoka has ever been internationally ranked.

Let's not get into unfair comparisons.

Bruh, in re (2), Law School always had people who signed up last minute for RCC and actually never wanted corp jobs. What appears to have changed is that those people are not getting T1 jobs (SCAM/AZB/TL/KCO) on Day Zero - whereas earlier 30-40 such people (in a batch of 80) would easily manage this.

Not to mention the NLS VC's lack of experience in administration. He's not an institution-builder and I feel his decisions are going to cost NLS in the long run. I feel he should've atleast steadied the ship in his first term and then done his whole expansion in his second term (if he got one), but he obviously thinks he's a revolutionary. What happens once he leaves and the Karnataka govt. tries to get some stooge VC at NLS? Will all the faculty still remain there for the long run? There's no reversing the high student intake or domicile quota either.

For everyone crying about not getting an internship at resolut partners, let me lay out the stats for you. Firstly, the firm gets about 100+ applications for a particular month out of which not more than 2-3 interns are selected. So its an extremely competitive process. so if you dont get in, its because you weren't good enough, as simple as that.

The firm places a lot of focus on values such as empathy and humility so if you lack the values they are looking for, you are out. For people out there, that are good law students but terrible people, best of luck getting in lol and stop crying here.

The firm does deals as big as tier 1's you can check out their website or bar and bench for that so it pays a tier 1 salary as well.

also if you get it in and are good enough, they wont hesitate in giving you an offer either.

Everyone knows how bad the exodus at CAM has gotten.If you want to put out out a post for recruitment, LI is a great place but problem on LI many are aware that CAM has major workplace issues and team toxicities.Great forum for advertising vacancies but unrealistic CAM praise sounding like an ad ruins it.

GNLU riding high on the wave of 2022 and 2023 batch placements (which BTW were record breaking for every law school) opened up a branch in Silvassa branding it to be part of GNLU. There was absolutely no need and the students there will get scammed and waste money just like those taking admissions in MNLU must have felt thinking its in Mumbai which will benefit them.

TT&A has backed out completely from the recruitment procedure whereas Argus has cancelled interview, as the recruitment drive which already had low hopes due to recession has worsened ar GNLU. Though it would be wrong to completely blame GNLU as Day Zero were dismal in NLS, NLUJ, NUJS, NLS etc however considering the batch size it is quite bad atm. Final numbers to be put today evening, however as things stand now, the worst ever nightmare and fears have come true.

Me, non-nlu average private college guy thinking about not getting any internship and being unemployed later.

4th year chalu ho gaya aur ab samajh aa raha hai shayad clat ke lie or padhna chahiye tha, sala jo chutiya kehta hai life enjoy karo uski mat suno, hustle karo bhai warna subah uthne se pehle or rat ko sone se pehle regret hi karte reh jaoge.

https://indianexpress.com/article/opinion/columns/what-made-oppenheimer-a-bigger-hit-than-barbie-in-india-8874947/

I quote the most important part of the article below:

"Put differently, a majority of men are not naturally predisposed towards Oppenheimer, but are championing the film perhaps because it helps them perform masculinity. Unless consciously addressed, such gender construction processes are self-reinforcing. .... Reportedly, around two-thirds of the Indian theatre-going audiences are male. (This is indicative of perhaps why Oppenheimer is doing better than Barbie in India, bucking the larger, global trends). Film industries continue to imagine a paying cis-heterosexual male as the default audience of the films they produce. Therefore, most of the fare is geared toward their sensibilities and expectations. The continued underrepresentation of women and non-binary people among audiences should be read as an index of their exclusion from the larger spaces of culture and leisure."

I have to say that I agree with the authors 100%. I actually saw both Oppenheimer and Barbie in the hall, rather than the pirated version. The Oppenheimer crowd was mostly male and many were engineering/science bros who were discussing the scientific aspects of the bomb, rather than its ethical implications. Then they were moaning about the censorship of Florence Pugh's nudity. So a pretty male and toxic environment overall. In contrast, the Barbie audience had mostly women. They were laughing at the right scenes and appreciating the movie's calling out of patriarchy.

Except for the fact that VCV is excellent at PR, there are no significant differences between SP Singh's style of administration and VCV's. Even SP Singh enjoyed the same level of acceptance as VCV does today, although it grew progressively worse over time. Furthermore, even inaction will initially be praised in light of the notorious administration of the previous VC

Even though I’m with the firms but I find what you are propagating to be a la la land for the newbie about to join the profession.

1. Funds is not something where you have many options laterally (in India).

2. What equity profits do a being given to A2s and A3s, None as per my knowledge

Are you asking the other law schools to provide breakup too, or are you so much in love only with NUJS? No RPC provides breakup before the end of their term, that's a common practice across law schools. Most NLUs like NLSIU never provides any breakup at all in the last 6-7 years.

NUJS has placed 30 in day zero and 35 via PPOs. The total number of students who were part of the recruitment process this year was unusually high, close to 100. However, many opted for it at the last moment. By the the time Day One results are fully announced, not more than 10 students should be left without jobs.

Im a straight guy. But boy Tanmay could dress sharp ekdum jhakaas fashion full on. I guess when you do private practice you have to dress sharp.

I was shocked when i heard he'd moved to Trilegal, didn't think he'd make such moves. But at the same time realization sank in later it was inevitable, good on him.

CAM is like a really shitty firm to work for.No one has a good thing to say about CAM,although they may say something good for their teams or partners.They dont care for competence or legal research.They are obsessed to getting contacts and over powering the system.Their other OCD is billing.They might even give wrong advice to client which doesn't solve his problem but increases the clients litigation and the firms billing.

Sorry bro ,neither I work for trilegal nor interested to praised them without a solid ground of pay hike . I just analysed the compensation paid by law firms and there is no corresponding change in thier compensation from 2014 . Surely many others firms are equally good or even better ( in term of work life balance) but here trend setters means positive change and rightly so to associates and higher levels . Cheers! it is wake up call for many other giants .

Yes,I agree.This like "guaranteed bonus" is just word play.Somethings very wrong here A couple of comments are talking about the bad culture,maybe its because the work environment is so taxing that a show of a huge hike is being made.I think there's a catch when words like "guaranteed bonus" come up.

Bro for this very same reason I have also put NALSAR on the top of my preference list for Clat 2024. Just wanted to ask that will I not miss out on anything if I don't go to NLSIU? because everybody says put NLSIU on top but I feel it is not owning to its name for the some past few years pertaining to it's placements. Please enlighten me.

Don't be dumb. Do all the internships. Schedule them from most important to least, and ask them to accommodate hour date preferences. They will mostly accept because after they offer you an internship, firms don't like taking it back. In the meanwhile keep applying to other places and reshuffling your internships basis what your preference is. Don't let go of an opportunity because clashing dates. Also a T4 corp experience might be more useful than a T2 IPR if you're interested in Corp. But do the IPR internship also.

This site is going dead just because of R's moderation speed. He moderates once a day so all threads continue lose relevance.

If someone replies, it takes 4-5 to have any effective conversation

Please for god's sake keep an extra moderator. I'll be more than happy to volunteer as would many others

Stop killing this site

Trilegal is so desperate to hire,even CAM is not in such a terrible state with its perpetually high attrition date that it will give a hike this high.And they will get every pennys worth out of you.If an A0 is given such a hike they must be having very high number of vacancies.

GNLU just completed Day-1 of its 2 days placement record. With the dismal hiring trend even in NLS, NUJs, NLUJ, GNLU was the last remaining hope. However even as the shortlists and interviews happened it has been made more or less clear that it faces one of the driest placement season, as the offers are expected to be in the lowest range in the last decade

Can someone tell me is it Scopus indexed and accepted for promotion ? Is this as per UGC norms or the faculty have committed unfair practicce?

I am a fresh graduate from a good private law school. My GPA is also good (in the top 10% of a pretty huge batch) and I have mooting and ADR experience as well. However, I couldn't convert an assessment internship and right now am without any job. I will be grateful if anyone can suggest good firms (practice area and location is no bar) that are still hiring from the 2023 batch. Please also suggest the process of application I should adopt (mail the HRs, directly approach the partners on LinkedIn or through mail, apply on the firm's website, etc).
