Besides fresh talent from law school or equivalent (most of whom we hire after internships), we also have interesting opportunities for lateral talent. People at different stages of their career may apply to us. In the case of lateral hires though, we place huge importance on culture fit and alignment of values, technical and professional skills, business and marketing acumen, adaptability and learnability. This is particularly necessary since our mindset, processes and culture (non-hierarchical, open, collaborative etc.) is fairly unique and different from most law firms.

Apart from new talent from law school or an equivalent background, we offer interesting opportunities for lateral hires. People at different stages of their career may apply to us. Our assessment of lateral hires remains the same as those starting their legal career.

NDA continues to attract and welcome diversity in its workforce. We take great pride in having a strong women representation amongst our members and believe in gender equality. Furthermore, we retain people with varied professional and educational backdrop. Besides law, we have recruited people with backgrounds in engineering, chartered accountancy, management, medicine, artificial intelligence and others.
