Yep. Did so in 2nd year of NUS. PM me.

QLTS grad. Passed. Would big firms view you more favourably when making a jump?

How about moving into an offshore Assoc role?

FCH from lower tier uni. Been stuck in the mid size for about 1.5 years, doing liti. Absolutely dread it. Hoping to do corp, dont mind the PQE cut

Nope. No advantage.

First from the mid size you have to jump to the big 4.
Slog it out a few years then apply for international firm.

And then what? Slog it out again?

This is accurate. Probably not a few years, a year or two should be sufficient given the state of the lateral market.
