When’s a good time to jump to intl firms?
Am in big 4 Corp

An acquaintance jumped recently to leading intl firm, but his/her PQE is low
So I was wondering - what’s a safe PQE personally to have learnt enough

A&G M&A is not as strong as it once was. Average quality of associates has dropped. Associates are clearing out every 2-3 years - not enough time for partners to ensure consistent quality.

It was a tremendous blow that Danny left.

Anyone knows how many trainees HSF and Sidley take for E&W TC? And are they mostly local or overseas grads

According to their website HSF takes 4-5. Heard Sidley takes 1-2 per year. Can't find any on linkedin though

Not sure if there's a "best time" to go. Asking if you've "learnt enough" assumes that you stop learning once you leave to an international firm, and/or that you only learn at big4. Neither is necessarily true - there are big4 teams that are absolutely crap for learning and there are international firm teams that are great for learning.

So, the answer to your question is, just do your diligence on the team you're looking to join (whether international firm or not), and ask around.

cmon bro danny is a joke too. any person that peddles the VCC as an ideal fund vehicle for closed-end funds doesn't know what they're talking about.

How is Shaun Leong. Is he in same category as Adam Maniam or better? Considering offers from both teams.

Both not impressive but Shaun is arguably more of a joke. I hear he has almost be law soc complaint a few occasions.
