18 July 2022 3:13 PM GMT
Today's law students want opportunities that provide purpose, real professional experience, and personal growth in addition to being fairly compensated. They seek a motivating, enriching environment—one in which they enjoy a shared sense of purpose and feel belonging. The companies that are attracting and retaining the best candidates have a healthy, collaborative culture that embraces creativity and innovation in a highly engaging way that transcends the traditional definition of "work". Welcome to the Legal & Research team at Girl Power Talk.
Girl Power Talk, in collaboration with our sister company, Blue Ocean Global Technology (New York, NY), offers selected interns the change to work on real legal case from the United States, Canada, UK and India where we have been hired to provide a qualified expert opinion and consult with our attorney clients.
Contribute to how we collaborate with attorneys on a range of digital, research and expert witness mandates. When an individual or organization faces a crisis, legal, or PR issues that reach the internet, we specialize in mitigating the impact of the defamatory content and repairing the negative reputation. Several top Am Law Firms rely upon our growing team to help them prepare for trial, file a lawsuit, and suppress negative information for their most prominent clients.
We empower young women and (men) with merit-based opportunities to grow and achieve their full potential. However, what defines Girl Power Talk at its utmost is that we are a company where young people are happy, there is intellectual freedom and everyone has a voice to express themselves. Our leaders are encouraged to learn across their 'course of study', which may include contributing to marketing, public relations, content writing and social media. Creating a happy and enjoyable work environment is foundational to our vision. We are changing the world together, and it is important that we have fun while doing it :)
To do this, we are relentlessly looking for the brightest law students to assist and contribute to the growing client mandate of our legal team. So, if you are looking for a work culture that will be the reason behind a huge smile on your face and give you motivation to get up every morning, as well as guide you to impact others' lives, then Girl Power Talk may be the right place for you.
