Hi, I'm deciding between virtual internships at SAM and Khaitan in Delhi. I'm in my 4th year currently. Seeking advice on work diversity, mentorship, networking, and long-term prospects. Will be grateful any insights. Thanks!
+2. A friend of mine working at one of these places had a virtual intern, she was telling me that it was hard to really assign work or form a connection as such because of the virtual nature of the internship. Better to do it offline, I've also been a virtual intern during covid and its super pointless.
If you want to convert it into a PPO, avoid Khaitan Delhi/Noida, they hardly hand out any PPOs. I didn't see a single soul been given a PPO by Khaitan Delhi/Noida from 2024 batch. Things might be different for the 2025 batch, but still test the waters well before you jump in.
Agreed, I interned there. Worked very hard, made a good impression and was in the GC team. I sensed that there were vacancies so pushed for a PPO. Towards the end, one SA told me that it was pointless as the Delhi office hardly gives a PPO, the last being pre-pandemic.
I was a former SA at KCO Delhi. Despite giving recommendations for PPO and convincing my colleagues to do the same, the PPOs were never given out. I think the Recruitment Partners were kinda shit and it's unfortunate that they didn't hire good talent.
