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?
I'll tell you why.
Because the other recruiters LOVE gathering CVs and then see you crave for a response. Profession ghosting sets in.
Bhargava sisters know their work. And truly, would rather tell you what's impossible rather than faffing about it, which is RATHER PREFERABLE than being ghosted for months.
Will also tell you who to avoid- Avimukta and Enroute. Loved Vahura to another extent in the past. Now it has lost its shine.
Go for TMPL.
1. Enroute Law (Don't respond after collecting CVs)
2. Avimukta (Same issue)
3. Vahura (Max PR)
Two of them are graduate recruitment folks at top firms, and one is still a law student at QM, who secured a TC at Latham. I know this third guy - have met him a couple of times. He is literally awesome. He is one of those student-turned-social-media-influencer types, but not the kind you usually find who talks bullshit, he's actually got substance - so even if you don't want the other two, follow him.
