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?
- Phone: Latest iPhone model. A genuine MagSafe case is not not necessary for a new associate. A fake Apple Silicone case will do. If the law firm thinks using pirated goods is a big deal, then a non-branded case. Also, genuine iPhone earbuds are not necessary for freshers. Sony or UBL will do.
- Spectacles (for those who were them): Should be a branded one, as I was asked about my glasses (unbranded ones) by a senior when I was interning. Tommy Hilfiger perhaps?
- Office wear and suits: Desi brands like Raymond, Van Heusen and Allen Solly are acceptable for freshers.
- Watches: The most controversial topic! In my view, Tissot is the basic staring brand, but those one a budget can also wear a cheap FastTrack fitness watch and say that they want to monitor their health.
- Shoes: Hush Puppies formals are ok?
- Deos: CK, Zara will do.
Disappointing.
