Law seems like a never ending rat race.
You’re essentially competing your entire life. Competing to go to Oxbridge law, after that competing to top the bar exams, competing to work in a white shoe or magic circle, competing to top the billable chart, competing to earn the most money, marry the most desirable spouse, send children to RI/RGS, live in a huge bungalow, etc. The competition never stops the day you are admitted to law school. Slack off at any stage or letting your guard down is fatal |

just whether u wanna compare kukubird size or not.
creating the best possible opportunities for yourself does not make you a comparatively superior person, however "superior" is defined tt durai, mingyi, kong hee et al all ri boys ya. but do tell us more about how your education pedigree automagically makes you a superior species of human. sinkies can be damn bloody superficial as is their wont but surely it is not too much to expect lawyers to exercise a bit of critical thinking. |
Hello, for those of us who've managed to go in house, can I ask how you guys planned your exit strategy? I'm a litigation associate in a Big4 firm, but I can't see myself doing this for the rest of my life - I want to be out of the here in 3-5 years, tops. Would love to hear what you guys did, or any advice you might have :)
I guess I have some specific questions as well: - How did you choose what type of in house firm to go to? E.g. Telecoms firms like singtel; aviation/cars like SIA, Chevron; tech firms; stat boards; banks. Did you just see whichever was hiring and apply to all? - Do I have to start trying to get myself on certain type of work? I see many in house jobs look for TMT lawyers, though I'm not sure whether I could do that as my team does commercial liti. - What sort of work do you do on average day? - I've heard some people say you should try to pivot to an international firm first to increase your chances of being hired by a big MNC. Is this true? - I've heard that some people get approached by headhunters, how can I get them to approach me? Or did you guys just keep applying for job listings till one accepted you? Sorry for the long spam, thank you for any replies :) |
