This is the concluding episode for last week’s podcast on “Litigation or Corporate/commercial?”. In this episode, I gave a quick recap on litigation, corporate/commercial and Banking & Finance. I then drilled down on Capital Markets/Mergers and Acquisitions, Technology, Media, Entertainment and Telecommunications (TMET), Business Advisory and Intellectual Property teams.

In this episode, I specifically discussed the day-to-day life of a Banking and Finance Associate. I went out from the general to the specific: I discussed which the practice group is more lucrative between corporate/commercial and litigation; I then threw some light on each of litigation and corporate/commercial practice groups before concluding with the quotidian tasks of a Banking and Finance Associate. I will take the other teams in the Corporate/commercial group such as Capital Markets, Intellectual Property, Technology, Media, Entertainment and Telecommunications, Business Advisory etc. in subsequent episodes.

In this episode, I attempted to demystify the concept of Pollyannaism which is also known as The Pollyanna Principle or The Positivity Bias.

I also talked about what I planned on doing if I couldn’t redeploy to Lagos and had to serve in Edo state or if I missed an opportunity to work with a big firm or if my application got rejected by a top university.
