Lmao drop this stupid liti vs corp debate. It's as pointless as arguing about overseas vs local unis. Past a certain point, it's apples & oranges.

It's trite to everyone who's applied for TCs that there are more liti roles than corp. Corp teams are more selective, while there's an abundance of liti roles in big and small firms.

That said, I believe good litigators are born not made. At the top end, the best litigators are extremely sharp and bright with incredible mental stamina i.e. SCs and High Court judge material. If you're middling, liti is a slog, both as a junior, and as a partner struggling to build your book.

Corp has the advantage of a wealth of exit options, not merely inhouse but adjacent roles in the industries they service too. Liti is more limited.

Find what aligns with your aptitude and interests.
