Northwestern Sun Mar 08, 2009 06:00 PM To get a job in the current market conditions is highly unlikely, however, if your specialization relates to International tax and have prior work experience in taxation, then you may have some chances to secure a job which may not necessarily be at a law firm. when is comes to getting a job, most people say that you need to be at the right place at the right time.

Northwestern Sun Mar 08, 2009 06:38 PM Although GULC is known for its International Law program but I am not sure if there is much demand for Internationl law practitioners except maybe for anti dumping etc. I think Tax is a good area keeping in mind GULC is no 3 in tax. Rest i agree with Santa.
