Yêu cầu
Essential
• Third- or fourth-year law student, or a recent law graduate
• GPA of 7.5/10 (or 3.0/4.0) or above
• English: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent; strong reading comprehension of English-language legal materials
• Precise Vietnamese legal writing, with rigorous reasoning and accurate statutory citation
• Proficiency in Word (formatting, automatic tables of contents) and basic Excel; competent legal database and legislation research
• A stable, reliable time commitment for the full duration of the internship
Preferred
• Achievements in moot court competitions (VIAC Mediation & Arbitration Moot, Vis, Vis East, FDI Moot, national or university-level competitions)
• Published research papers, journal articles or conference contributions
• Prior internship at a court, a procuracy, or a law firm with a litigation practice
• Additional Chinese, Japanese or Korean
The qualities we look for
• Diligence and hard work: consistent attendance, punctuality, and the stamina to work through large volumes of documents. Litigation has no shortcuts - most results come from reading carefully what everyone else skimmed
• Initiative: proposing research angles of your own, asking when something is unclear, reporting progress without being chased, and delivering ahead of the deadline rather than on it
• Precision: a misstated article of law or a miscalculated limitation date can lose the case
• Critical thinking: the willingness to identify weaknesses in your own reasoning and in your supervisor's
• Discipline about deadlines - in litigation, deadlines are set by law, not by agreement
Absolute discretion with client information
Quyền lợi
• One-to-one mentoring by a litigator actively running the matters you work on
• Detailed written feedback on every draft you produce
• Regular in-house training in advocacy, evidence and arbitration
• Internship allowance: VND 3,000,000 - 5,000,000 per month, depending on ability and time commitment, plus travel and hearing-related expenses
• Certificate of internship and a letter of reference from the supervising Partner
• A defined path: outstanding interns progress to Legal Assistant and then to Associate
