But how about the linklaters and HSF offices in Singapore? I’m wondering why do the international firms have so little presence in SG as compared to other Asian cities like Hong Kong or even Tokyo?

The hiring by connections point is very true, but I think it applies to all firms

Untrue on point #1. Rodyk, KW, etc not as selective as B4. Same goes for knockoffs. Only exception is if you're applying to do ONLY international work with SG work to fulfil ptc.
Put retention aside. How much do these firms pay ptcs compared to the 2K at b4

I'm at a FLA and receiving 2K. There's another FLA paying 2.5K

Makes sense. Firms hire trainees with a view to retain them. If you cannot be retained, why hire you?

The market rate for MOST FLAs is less than 2. Good that your FLA is actually matching B4
