"I don't think it's normal for a trainee". What makes you think that trainees are better than associates? We also spend a lot of time formatting documents, typing minutes and proofreading. Ask around in 2-3 months if 12mn is abnormal for a trainee. |
keeping it intentionally vague but yeah it's one of the big fours. can anyone here list down the firms in which they are able to end work within normal hours? i'm summa cum laude but i'm ok with smaller firms. seems like such long hours is only confined to the big fours. wasn't successful with jlc, agc though.

i'm about to grad next year. unfortunately, i'm in the list of universities that MinLaw removed in March 2015. my seniors who have graduated this year have all told me that they cannot find a RLT/TC. even the only person in their batch who had obtained first class had to settle for a small firm. i'm on track to receive a 2:1. i took many loans from relatives and banks as well as my savings to do this LLB in the UK, so i'm very worried that i wont be able to pay back if i cannot even get a RLT/TC.

Does anyone know if work at international firms like the UK magic circle firms in Singapore have better working hours?

I'm very surprised to be honest. Not putting you down or anything, but this should have been something you would have well been aware of as early as Year 2 or Year 1 by talking to seniors or just asking around generally or on internships. Its sort of like someone getting into a bulge bracket investment bank and suddenly realising, *holy ****! the hours are bad*, does any one know of another investment bank with normal hours? Did you not ask around before you decided to secure a traineeship? |

And there are lots of crazy deals around, many of which starts on Friday. |

such a brilliant legal mind like yours can surely only accept the very best to begin his exponentially amazing legal career! therefore, your lordship, might i suggest the managing partners of all these "smaller firms" gather to engage in a feet-washing competition in your esteemed presence. the one who washes your feet most satisfactorily will have the everlasting privilege your presence gracing us and taking the firm to heights never before seen! |
