While there is no discrimination against SMU students, I noticed that a number of SMU students lack basic legal knowledge whether due to the way the modules are taught or otherwise. In addition, they are more outspoken which is a good trait except when they argue over legal points without any legal basis. |
Think what the poster above say is correct. I'm a recruitment partner in a law firm as well and this has been the general observation.

And if this year is really reflective of the general standards of students that have been slipping through for the past countless cohorts, then by all means they should fail 75% of the students next year for the good of the profession |
Any tips for how future law students can land a TC? Sad that in a jurisdiction so tightly regulated like singapore, law grads are now having to fight tooth and nail to get qualified like in the US, UK or Australia. And with the third law school opening real soon, I'm sure all the students there are all unreservedly going to practice community law (/sarcasm). Gahmen really dropped the ball on this one.

Be rich/well-connected. Otherwise, internships, getting into a good school and having good grades would help. Better still, don't choose law as your major.

I know a lot of my clients who are SME owners not highly educated one but make big bucks... like few hundred k to millions a year.
The thing is to think out of the box. With supply keep increasing and demand relatively constant the salary simply can't keep up. the point is peoples are retiring older now and supply just keep piling up. simple finance. my 2 cents.. |

the application and interview process for local firms is already pretty darn easy (submit grades, submit cv, write a nondescript email, answer max 5 generic questions at interview), especially if you compare it to the uk (multiple rounds of interviews, situational exercises, presentations). if you can't hustle, then maybe you're just not suited for the industry. |
