Alot of top NUS students (with NYU LLM) this year opted straight for firms in NYC.

As for the SMU top student, yes we saw on linkedin his announcement. Interesting but i’d bet Mammon will call out to him soon

Very illustrious list.

All in international firms. JLC.

I guess because of OP’s post, these people will see uptick in their linkedin viewws.

Don't even. This opening has been around for a couple of years now and seems to never get filled permanently.

People on this forum have attended the interview, and the feedback is atrocious. The vibes from the interviewer are unprofessional and toxic. Advertised pay is terrible too, apparently.
