Rave reviews from some of the last batch’s college managers
- It was such a beautiful journey. I can say, I enjoyed every bit of it. Be it the internship tasks right from the start to the interview one – it all gave me a good sense of my capabilities. I had fun interacting with other peers. Gladly, I have a few friends from the team too now. The happiest part for me is that – the entire Internship was nothing of a formal sort, I got to be who I am while learning something and developing skills for myself.
– Madhura Aradhya M, B.M.S. College of Law, Bengaluru - I developed better communication skills since the tasks assigned by the Lawctopus Team required me to interact with my professors and peers at a professional level. I also improved my email writing skills since I had to follow up for the interview questions constantly with the star faculty and students. I also appreciated the day the we got to interact with Tanuj Sir and hear valuable information from him regarding resume writing given his busy schedule. Overall, it was an enriching and insightful experience that helped me hone my skills.
– Dafny Monalisa D’cunha, Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Law College, Mangalore, Karnataka - Firstly , I’m very thankful to Lawctopus for giving me this chance to be part of this program. The one thing I had learned is to approach people and talk to them freely to get their responses. Next thing is sharing my law school experience keeping in mind that it would help a lot of people out there. And also I have learned to finish my tasks on time. As a whole, I had enjoyed this journey a lot.
– R. Jeeva Dharshini, Vellore Institute of Technology, Chennai - It was an adventurous journey. I learnt a lot, from friends as well as from the Lawctopus Team. The experience was great. The Lawctopus Team was like our second family. They taught us many things like marketing and public outreach. They also taught us other things like content management and project management. I got to learn amazing skills and I also enjoyed every task. I made many new friends too. It was all possible because of Lawctopus.
– Ashutosh Raturi, Law College Dehradun, Uttaranchal University, Dehradun, Uttarakhand - Lawctopus is a prestigious organisation that has assumed importance in a law student’s everyday need, so being their Campus Leader is no doubt a good-to-feel thing. It was an interactive program. I learnt how to give reviews on anything. It taught me how to manage time to complete a task along with mandatory works like studies and classes. I learnt to approach people, for help and suggestions. I also made a lot of new connections and friends.
– Mohammad Abid Siddiqui, Faculty of Law, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi - Lawctopus provides a platform for many law students to make their law school journey beautiful and productive. The things which I loved about them was that they always provided us the opportunity to grow and helped us in every task. The best thing about lawctopus was it never felt like burden to us. The tasks were interesting and not boring. And Lawctopus made the learning process more exciting through some fun loving activities.
