"I like the kid who says I'm a fresh sheet of paper and doesn't use words like 'logic' which intimidates my Singlish-speaking-boomer-brain because this shows he has no arrogance, unlike the kid who use big words like 'logic' and 'dictates'... only I get to dictate, especially, your salary and how late you need to work to prove you understand law is a calling ... "

Tell me you are some Chinatown hack trying to fleece gullible fresh grads, without telling me you are a Chinatown hack trying to fleece gullible fresh grads.

How does that square with ://sglegaljobs.com/blog/post/singapore-lawyer-salary-big-4-law-firms

which suggests that NQs are 7k except for WongP.

Is the sglegaljobs website inaccurate?

Bump. So what is the answer? Are NQs (August call) are paid $7k or not? Seems like a fairly simple question.

Find it strange that a forum full of lawyers, with a not insignificant bunch coming from Big 4, can't answer a simple question? Instead we get one long winded self masturb atory reply after another that ultimately fails to answer.

Not even asking for a binary answer "YES" or "NO" a la cross-examination.

Feel free to elaborate if the true position is more nuanced e.g. "there's a band that ranges from X to Y" or "laterals may be lowballed at the lower end of the range as compared to trainees who did their TC with the firm", or "it varies from department to department"

But nobody can furnish a direct answer?

Bro/sis, this August you’ll get your answer isn’t it?
But if you’re not in big 4, why are you asking?
If you’re already in big 4, then why bother asking?

Easy right

Not that difficult. It was a lot easier over the pandemic, but it’s doable now still. Just have to zhng your LinkedIn, set as open to work and start talking to recruiters.
