9th Young-OGEMID Symposium: To Do or Not To Do - Top Ten Things Junior Lawyers Should or Should Not Do On the Job (January-February 2019)

18 January 2019

Young-OGEMID has developed a number of initiatives meant to address the unique needs of the listserve members. These include "virtual" symposia among others.

Our ninth Young-OGEMID symposium "To Do or Not To Do - Top Ten Things Junior Lawyers Should or Should Not Do On the Job" will start at the end of January 2019

About the Symposium

Making the transition from higher education to practice can be difficult. Very often, we don't know what we don't know, leading to all types of mistakes. In this virtual symposium, senior lawyers from private practice, government and corporate legal departments share their insights on what junior lawyers should or should not do in order to succeed at their jobs.

Young-OGEMID Membership

Membership of Young-OGEMID is free, there is no obligation to subscribe to the Transnational Dispute Management (TDM, ISSN 1875-4120) law journal and people can leave the list at any time. The only prerequisite is that people who register are either law student, Junior (non- tenure) Academics or associates e.g. partners or tenured professors shouldn't join as Young-OGEMID is meant for young professionals so they can exchange, relatively out of the eye of their seniors on a more equal basis, information and discussion.
