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?
HELP
1. Do NOT post stupid posts like "happy to share I have received an internship offer from xyz", or "share your new position" as an intern with your "network". Only one kind of post is decent enough for people not to hate you and that's a post-internship post where you thank folks in your team and HR and summarise what you did or learnt. Please don't be cringy enough to upload your internship certificates either as posts or in your profile.
2. Do NOT like random posts by others (like the above, jokes {yes even law related} and "my struggle" posts that don't culminate in some specific recent achievements or selfies by attractive people in formals posted purely to increase engagement). People unfollow you and might even remove you as a connection.
3. When you post an internship on your profile, also mention your team and a few lines on the work you did.
4. Please for the love of God have a professional photo and cover photo. Using pictures of scales (⚖️), suits/ties and collar band is extremely cringe and gives "class 12 CLAT aspirant" vibes. Please no selfies and no Snapchat filters.
5. Please never use the word "ante-penultimate" for 3rd year.
And for god sakes, stop sending connection requests to partners.
