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.

Looking ahead, I am also scheduled to intern with Saikrishna & Associates (▮▮▮ ▮▮▮) and King Stubb & Kasiva (▮▮▮ ▮▮▮), and I am targeting more opportunities in January 2026 with both large firms and boutique practices. All of my internships so far have been secured through merit and performance-based selections, without institutional support from college.
My interest lies in General Corporate, and I am seeking advice on the following:
1. How should I navigate my upcoming internships to make them impactful and possibly convert them into long-term opportunities?
2. What should I focus on in terms of preparation and skill-building to build a career in General Corporate?
3. For assessment internships or interviews, what key areas (laws, skills, or case studies) should I study to stand out during evaluations?
Any guidance from seniors and practitioners would be invaluable.
