LCLS(S) organises legal career fair
The prospective law graduates in Bangladesh remain in a state of uncertainty that how they can start their legal career. Keeping this matter in mind, on 21 July 2011 London College of Legal Studies South (LCLS South) organised a career fair aiming to create positive opportunities by linking up between academic learning and practical world.
The event took place at LCLS(S) premise at Kalabagan, Dhaka. More than 27 Law Chambers and organisations were present to unfold opportunities for those who are freshly called Barristers, English law graduates from any institution and those who have completed LLB Yr 2 and Yr 3 in May 2011 by providing them full/part time employment, internship/pupillage etc. to have some practical experiences in legal area.
The prospective employers were: Dr. Kamal Hossain and Associates, Chowdhury & Ullas and Associates, Legal Counsel, Rahman's Chambers, Farook and Associates, FM Associates, A Hossain and Associates, The Lawyers and Jurists, Lex Council, The Legal Minds, Abdul Matin Khasru and Associates, Legal Home, Justice A.K. Badrul Hoque and Companions, Ruhul Kuddus and Associates, Temple Court Chambers Dhaka Annex, Rahat Khalil and partners, Bangladesh Environmental Lawyers Association, British American Tobacco, City Bank Ltd., Shahjalal Islami Bank,One Bank, Grameen Phone, GP IT and others. The participating students in the fair were of the opinion that it was a great opportunity for them to meet 18 to 20 Legal Chambers and companies at a same span of time.
This was the first legal career fair organised by LCLS South and the Head of Law Barrister Khaled Hamid Cowdhury is very positive about its outcome and ensure that this kind of fair will be organised more often to link up between the Law Chambers and prospective graduates.
This workshop would act as a catalyst for the legal learners to face the challenges of actual scenario of practicing law.
