I’m in need of some help and advice. For the past four months, I’ve been actively searching for employment and assessment internship opportunities in law firms T1, T2 and T3, particularly in Delhi and Bangalore. Despite a few interviews, I’ve mostly been ghosted or faced rejections, and the process has been pretty challenging, especially since I have zero contacts in the industry. Right now i am not in those cities i am in a remote town near the border because of my parents profession and cannot move out without a job since it will create incredible stress on my parents finances.
I hold an LLB (Hon.) from JGU and a BA (Hon.) in Political Science from Delhi University, with a strong interest in dispute resolution and corporate law as well as is TMT which is where i seek to specialise and have done multiple courses in the area in form of electives and certifications. I’ve applied for various associate, junior associate, and internship roles, but so far, nothing has worked out. Have contemplated hanging myself but since my parents have invested so much in me it would not be fair to them so here i am stuck between a rock and a hard place.
If anyone has any leads or advice, or knows of openings, I would really appreciate your help. I’m eager to work hard and prove myself wherever I get the opportunity.
Thanks so much for your time in advance!
