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.

If you have gotten your internship through your RCC, I am guessing you are from a tier 1 NLU. That helps. I would say try to be as reliable as possible. Do quality work, finish them on time, show initiative, try to get as involved as possible in particular matters. In disputes you will often be given research propositions for which you will find no case law. That is okay. Go and speak to your team about why they are searching for that proposition and see if you can suggest alternate arguments. In short, try to be as much a part of their team as possible.
