Hi! I am final year student from a private university (well known but not so known for law) with no college placements as such. I am interested in general corporate/m&a and have done good internships (few tier 1 also) in this field. Recently I have got an internship in Pioneer Legal but I am skeptical to accept the offer since interning in Mumbai is quite expensive for a normal internship that too in 5th year. Should I go for it or let it go (given the fact I don't know how will I figure out a job after graduation) and try to figure out assessment internships in other firms? What is the hiring pattern in this firm? Please any guidance would help me make a right decision.

Ask the HR is they are hiring or not. Be clear that you can't afford to intern unless you there is a prospect of retainership and then make a decision
