My preferences were Disputes and Competition, but I was only sent an Assessment for Competition Law, which I cleared and received the internship confirmation. I am really looking to convert this into a Callback and then a PPO. However, a few seniors advised me that Competition is really niche and Disputes Hiring is also pretty low.
Can someone help me decide which team should I prefer among Disputes and Competition (if I get that opportunity with the HR, as I gave an assessment for Competition but my first preference was Disputes)? Also, I was referred for the Internship by a Disputes Team Person who came on campus for an event.
And how true is my senior's idea wrt hiring and that I should be interning with some other team?
Thank you for your help!
