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.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
You'd be on better footing, if you are familiar with contract law, corporate law (companies act, FEMA, etc.). Apply to all firms (tier I included) - I know of quite a few corporate partners in tier 1s who started off with litigation.
If you seem like a quick learner who knows what he is talking about, firms always hire competent trainable talent, irrespective of prior work experience - be prepared for them to start you off at a lower position than you feel you deserve though - this should get rationalised once you show how well you can do.
Just one tip - do not bullshit if you don't know, interviews are not college exams, and the interviewer already knows answers to the questions he is asking, so you will not be able to confound him/her with made up nonsense.
The move is usually to smaller corporate firms, I assume they do ask you basic corporate law questions relating to company law, sebi regulations and fdi laws.
whom Should I reach out for ?
PS. I am 2 + years of Ex. in Disputes
