Application Process

I applied for the internship through our college placement cell

Duration of Internship and Timings

Duration – 1 month

Timings –   9:30- 6:30

First Impression, First Day Formalities

I was formally briefed about the office policies and was assigned a mentor, and introduced to everyone in the office.

Main Tasks

The work is basically research related to commercial laws. We were asked to make notes and presentations on various topics E.g. RBI Act, FDI Policy, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code etc

Work environment and People

Work environment is very encouraging. Though we got most of the work from our mentor, other associates too would assign some tasks if the need be. Seniors were all the time ready and happy to help.

Best Things

Extensive research on different topics related to corporate law. Great exposure to different aspects of the law. Making presentations in front of everyone would make us more responsible and answerable to what we said during the presentation.

Bad Things

The location of the office is a little difficult to reach by public transport (i.e. Local Train and Bus) because of relatively weak connectivity.
