We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

I have a few questions, and if anyone knows the answer to any of them please do reply:
- How does the 'Day Zero' process work? How long before I get a proper email/offer letter from them?
- Has anyone received offer letter for 2022 yet?
- If yes ^ what's the salary offered? (I only ask because someone told me that they differentiate based on college, and I would like to prepared if this is the case - though previous LI threads suggest that Trilegal doesn't do that)
- Should I wait around for them to contact me, or should I email the HR or someone else?
- they have told me practice area, but not the office (location)- is this normal?
Any help will be appreciated guys. I've seen through some recent LI threads that many have received Day Zero offers from Trilegal (Congratulations!), so your first hand information will greatly help me.
P.S.
Sorry about the long list of doubts, but I frankly have no one to ask, and I know the LI community will help
They'll probably read this and respond.
Have you received your offer letter yet?
Could you please tell us what questions did the interviewer asked.
I also got some situation -based questions. They made up some situations that clients may face, and how I would approach them. Don't be overwhelmed by this, they expect veryyy basic-knowledge answers and are very sweet when they converse with you, i.e. don't be intimidated AT ALL. And certainly don't try to make up fancy things you don't have a sense of yourself.
And then 2 generic questions - why law; and which practice area, and why
generally, not more than 2 weeks from any of the top law firms.
- Has anyone received offer letter for 2022 yet?
yes
- If yes ^ what's the salary offered? (I only ask because someone told me that they differentiate based on college, and I would like to prepared if this is the case - though previous LI threads suggest that Trilegal doesn't do that)
same salary for everyone joining the batch at the same time. As far as i know, Trilegal does not differentiate.
- Should I wait around for them to contact me, or should I email the HR or someone else?
contact them and ask. its your right!
- they have told me practice area, but not the office (location)- is this normal?
probably you said you were open to any location. But do ask.
Waiting for people to reply... looking forward to knowing this.
Many people don't understand that students from Tier-3 colleges are not even aware of basic things such as day-zero :(
I understand you must be anxious, but have some faith.
You've done well and come so far, believe in that.
Sorry for the rather philosophical response. While I do not have exact answers to your questions, I have been where you are today, and just wanted to tell you that it'll all be worth it the day you see your letter. And that day will come soon.
I was really curious as to what are the qualifications Trilegal looks for in order to select a student? How good was your CGPA in college? What were your qualifications? How did you present yourself in the interview?
I'm sorry if I bothered you too much. I was just curious since I'm in my final year of law school now.
