senior year, internship at Changchun Law Firm

First of all, if you pass the judicial examination in September, you can first inquire about local law firms through industry insiders who are familiar with law firms. Generally, law firms mostly like newcomers who are introduced by acquaintances, and only those who are recruited through open recruitment few.

The one-year internship period starts when the Department of Justice issues a law firm intern certificate. The internship certificate needs to be applied for by the law firm that agrees to accept you. In principle, full-time internship is required, but many places are more Accommodating, internship certificates are also issued to current students, and if you have acquaintances in the law firm, you don’t have to do the internship in person. After the one-year period, the law firm will issue an internship certificate, and then you will be eligible to apply for a practicing certificate.

During the internship period, you have to pay an internship fee to the institute. I don’t know if this is required everywhere, but for current students, it is only half price. In principle, no salary is paid during the internship, but if you work as an assistant for a lawyer or do some work for the lawyer, you will usually be given some compensation. Although it is very low, it is better than nothing.

There will always be seniors in your law school who are doing internships. Ask them how they found them, and they may be able to introduce you to them!
