I want to climb corporate ladder, what should I do and how do I go about it ? I have 1.5 PQE in Litigation.
Will I just shift to mumbai and drop my resumes in Small Corporate Law Firms near Bombay HC ? How much will they pay ? Is this plan practical ?
I am full of doubt. Pls enlighten
Im not asking you to harass partners. But before singing a rant story thinking this is indian idol, just send your resumes to HRs and partners of those small firms and tier 2/3 firms in disputes. Ask your litigator senior for a reference. Call HRs, heckle. You have no idea how many CVs even a small shop receives every day aur tu "drop karu ya na" sochta reh.
Shifting to Mumbai from my native -> finding a space on rent -> going to small firms and physically handing over my resume .
In other words, spending a lot of money in this exercise and wasting close to 3-6 months.
by 'dropping' i did not mean sending a mail which HRs and partners continue to ignore
Sab kuch online ho jata hai. Even interviews.
