Greetings Mr Patil, I am based in Mumbai with my family. Myslef and my wife both are at middle level jobs and are comfortable. Our son completed his LLM in Corporate Law from NMIMS, Mumbai. He was helped by myself in a job in a Chartered Accountancy Firm where he worked for 67 months and later shifted to another small owner Corporate Law Firm nad worked from home, as the employer was too stingy, uninspiring and expected all kinds of expenses to be borne by my son and that too at the stipend of Rs. 25000/- , Also he gaied weight of 7 kg working from home day and night. my son is well groomed, presentable and professional however his attempts to join Corporate law Firms have been fruitless and he is getting frustrated with the walled system that we have in our nation where mostly referrals get you jobs. Request yu to advise us on the matter. In case if you could guide him and us personally of fee basis, we are open to that personalised consultation too.

Ans: Hi Ravi, Considering your son's current situation and his interest in pursuing a career as an SAP consultant/ CPA could be a good choice. But it's extremely important for him to carefully evaluate his interests, skills, and long-term goals before committing to a new career path. He may do thorough research and seek professional advice from SAP or domain experts who are best placed to give him the industry knowledge and perspective on the job market. Researching the demand, growth potential, and future trends in these professions will help your son make an informed decision and aligning his personal interest to his aspirations will further help him in achieving overall job satisfaction / professional growth in the long run.

Some of the other factors which are equally important are his natural inclination towards technology and accounting. SAP consultants require a strong understanding of business processes and technical expertise, while CPAs need a solid foundation in accounting principles and analytical skills. it would be ideal to first identify his strengths and interests. Certifications or skill-based Bootcamps can be a good idea to acquire some targeted skills instantly to enhance his skill quotient.

Ans: I understand your concern. Law is a challenging field, and it is not uncommon for people to face difficulties in their careers. However, there are many career options available for people with an LLM degree.

Some of the most popular career options for LLM graduates include working as a lawyer, legal advisor, law officer, or law professor. Additionally, there are many other career paths that LLM graduates can pursue, such as working in the media and publishing industry, NGOs, FMCG, real estate, law firms, consultancies, finance sector, corporate sector, and international organizations like UN, UNICEF, etc.

It is important to note that the career path your son chooses will depend on his interests, skills, and experience. If he is interested in pursuing a career in law, there are many opportunities available to him. However, if he is looking for a change, he may want to consider exploring other career options that align with his interests and skills.

I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions, please let me know.
