what about the disputes team with the Tier 1 law firms ? will i ever get there how much the contacts work in the office. I dont have any contact what shall I do
GC teams are usually bulky in T1 so more hires, but as long as your CV has a direction you can expect a job in the practice area you are interested in.
Just pointing out that you might also want to consider the fact that exponentially more people apply for GC & M&A positions than other highly specialised verticals.
Which teams at a law firms hire the highest - due to all factors (1) More work (2) Attrition Rates (3) Future Scope.
For example we all know that General Corporate and M&A teams hire the highest at the same time Trade, Private Client Teams hire one of the lowest amounts of associates - as they are niche areas where not a lot of jobs are created.
Can you list down the areas where hiring is the highest. I am a 5th Year Law Student. Hope this will be a useful thread for all of us.
AREAS for instance, also add any team you feel is necessary by hiring trends.
