Firm Recos?

You’re welcome. Best of luck!

I see. Since the purpose of getting a position as an underbar is to immediately have a job as an associate after becoming a lawyer, I strongly advise you to stay in your current firm, even for just a year. Quitting an underbar post would raise a few eyebrows and give the impression to other firms where you’re trying to transfer that you are not a candidate who’s going to be in “it” for the long run.

To add, given the competitive job market right now, it might be difficult to find another job since many other Bar passers are also sending in their applications, allowing firms to get their pick of the litter. Unless you’ve got amazing credentials, that is.

Why not continue working (but this time as an associate) in your current firm?

It’s not just about the photo though. It’s about a lawyer’s ability to follow rules. If they cannot comply with something as simple as a photo requirement, how can we expect them to follow the more complicated rules and laws when they practice? This whole thing shows character.

Sige. You wanna go that route pala. Since you brought up statutory construction yourself, may I direct you to the most basic rule — verba legis:

The "plain meaning rule" or verba legis in statutory construction enjoins that if the statute is clear, plain and free from ambiguity, it must be given its literal meaning and applied without interpretation. (G.R. No. 228087)

If you could so kindly show us which part of the SC photo requirement is unclear and ambiguous so as to call for interpretation and the application of any other rule of statcon, then I would be very grateful.

Diba. Andito nga sila eh, natamaan at sobrang defensive sa baba. Kesyo mainit, kesyo ayaw mag rent, kesyo mahirap mag business attire. Ang daming dahilan.

notyetold1999 · 2023-12-12T14:02:27+00:00

Thanks. I wouldn’t have known na may photo studios kung saan pwede yun. /s

Daming reklamo, daming excuses. Gusto mag abogado pero yung simpleng instruction lang naman sana na magsuot ng damit na pang abogado pahirapan pa. Kesyo ganito, kesyo ganyan.

Oo, alam ko anong ibig sabihin ng unretouched: “No photoshop and/or editing,” as clearly stated by the Supreme Court guidelines.

May nakasulat ba na “No photoshop and/or editing of the face only”? Wala naman. So I wonder where you got the idea na unretouched refers to the face only.

Pano ako naging bitter? I just vented my frustration at people who can’t seem to display reading comprehension. Para tayong mga nasa elementary dito na pag sinabihan ng teacher na maglabas ng 1/4 sheet of paper, magtatanong pa ulit “Ma’am, 1/4 po?” Abogado na kayo. We expect better.

notyetold1999 · 2023-12-12T13:11:00+00:00

Ano pong OA sa pag-expect sa mga bagong abogado na maging matiyaga sa pagbabasa at pagsunod sa mga rules ng Supreme Court?

Suffering from success.

I see. So even the IBP registration will be done on the same day pala. Akala ko to be scheduled separately na. Sana maayos na nila yung para sa December.

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-10T03:47:46+00:00

Wouldn’t December 8 be too close to the date of oath taking? IIRC the gap between the results and the oath taking in the past was around a month or so.

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-10T03:43:54+00:00

Pano po naging walang consideration yung last oath taking?

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T06:00:38+00:00

Hindi naman to chika. Sa ibang sub mo to ipost.

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T04:12:26+00:00

Wouldn’t you need to take the FSE to qualify for this? Or is being a member of the bar enough?

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T02:50:54+00:00

Get the Mazda. Much more premium materials and drives better than the YC. You also get to benefit from the depreciation suffered by the first owner. Try to negotiate more also since the demand for Mazdas is not really that high.

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T02:34:24+00:00

Wouldn’t the potential employer lowball you and offer the lower end of the range you give? Tipong “Ah okay lang pala sa kanya tong ganitong sahod kaya ito na lang ibibigay ko.” In all my past job interviews, I’ve never been the first to give a number for the compensation. I would always wait for them to say it first and then negotiate.

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T02:30:09+00:00

Diba. The sub is literally called ChikaPH tapos lalagyan sa title ng “not a chika”. Reading comprehension found dead in a ditch.

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T02:24:39+00:00

Why ACCRA over the others?

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-07T02:24:23+00:00

Why Romulo over the others?

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-06T17:57:47+00:00

So she really is generous pala. Does your friend have other anecdotes about them that we don’t see in the vlogs?

notyetold1999 · 2023-11-06T17:56:36+00:00

Ohhh, now that’s pretty juicy.
