Question is, did you grad from Local U/Ivy League?

Is this a standard in the law industry? Why is the pay so low

Im thinking of getting a job, probably in SME, to gain experience first before going to Uni. An Intern sounds good too.

Finding a job and your salary

Hi all!

It seems like it is quite difficult to find a job right after graduating right? Can we share how long it took for you to find a job, the platform, the difficulty?

Do you state your expected salary to them or wait till the interview? Do you request an average salary of your industry or do you state higher?

Let us all help those in need!
