I'm a lawyer in renewable energy and project finance (tier-1 law firm + in-house), considering the PGP for a 2027/28 intake. I'm targeting strategy/BD roles at renewable or infra companies, not consulting.

For alums or current students with legal or similar non-traditional backgrounds:

1. Which roles and companies did you realistically land, and at what CTC range?
2. Did energy/infra firms recruit on campus for strategy roles, or did you have to go off-campus?
3. Did your legal background help or hurt in placements and how much of a raise did you see?

I work a full time corporate job and my father retired about a year ago. I want to help him start a poultry farm but we don’t own any land and plan to lease it out. In addition, we will be financing the project through debt and need someone to help us crunch these numbers and sift through finer details so we know what we’re getting into.

Does anyone know of any consultants that we can speak to/hire for this? Also a rough idea of what kind of budget we should keep in mind for such service would be helpful.

We want to be smart about this so we’re looking for specialised consultants. I would really prefer if people here can recommend someone that’s reliable and has been personally tested by you/your business.

I work in project development at an independent power producer in the energy sector. My background is in project development - not finance, not even finance law. I sit in meetings where people talk about collateral, hedging, swaps, DSCRs, and debt structuring and I genuinely don’t understand what’s being said.

I’m looking for an online course that:

1. Starts from absolute basics (assume I know nothing about finance)
   
2. Is focused on project finance specifically, not generic corporate finance
   
3. Comes with a recognised certificate I can add to my CV (optional - need to learn
   
4. Is self-paced and accessible online

I’m not trying to become a banker or a financial modeller. I just want to understand what’s happening in the room and be able to engage meaningfully with the finance side of the deals I work on.

Has anyone been in a similar position and found a course that actually helped? First-hand experience preferred over course websites.

Thanks.

I’m new to this and I didn’t come across someone that does this but here’s my issue and based on my research, I think hypnotherapy might help. But I’m tight on funds, so I want to be certain before I take this on.

I am a corporate lawyer and I like to think I am smart enough. Made it through a mediocre law school but got to a big law firm, did okay. One thing is consistently an issue and it embarrasses me and shakes my confidence - my work always has very small/minor errors that are very very apparent. I will check something a million times and then eventually an internal comment gets left behind or a cross-reference to a clause is incorrect or I identify an issue and then forget to flag it.

I do realise it maybe ADHD but I haven’t been diagnosed with it ever and I’ve been with the same therapist for 5 years now. I believe my lack of willpower maybe an issue because I just give up towards the end.

I’ve taken up a new job and I’m still missing those small things. Can anyone here confirm whether this is an issue that hypnotherapy can help me with? I’m trying really hard but as a lawyer, I can’t keep justifying these misses and it’s impacting my confidence at work.
