No. It's the midsize benchmark.

whats the midsized benchmark?

what are my TC prospects, NUS second lower? will mid sized firms take me for TC?

For disputes, is it better for me to apply for a TC at a b4 firm or somewhere more international like baker/cc?

What's the NQ like at bird & bird atmd? Heard their retention rate is notoriously low

any gossips from dechert ppl here abt the neil gerrard case?

Big firms will take you now with the supply shortage.

US: Dechert, JD, HL, K&S, Sidley, Shearman, W&C
MC: A&O, CC, LL, Freshfields
SC: Ashurst, HSF, NRF

And many of them do hire SG-qualified associates, though these tend to be people with stellar credentials (ex-JLC, NUS FCH/SMU summa, Oxbridge, international moot champions, etc). There is a much greater emphasis on academics and raw intelligence given the nature of disputes work at that level which calls for intricate legal analysis and argumentation.

What is the best way to get intk these firms if im a NUS 2:1.

Will connections / referrals from my peers (who r in there) help?

I am a newly qualified lawyer, local NUS 2.1

I have applied for the above prosecution officer post.

Does anyone know what the work culture/hours is like in MOM?

I heard pay differs from the normal AGC legal officer role. can anyone confirm? Has this changed after the 2022 OLY changes?
