Message: <blockquote data-quote="Numerius Negidius" data-source="post: 46497" data-attributes="member: 7019">I am a second year student holding a training contract offer from a Magic Circle firm. I am not sure whether I should still bother applying to vacation schemes with US firms. I do hope to work for US firms in the long term given the higher salaries, but I have also heard that US firms hire a considerable number of Magic Circle lawyers upon qualification or several years PQE. With that in mind, are there any advantages to starting off at a MC firm instead of a US firm? How hard is it to move from the MC to US firms?The compensation in the short term isn't such a big deal given that trainee salaries are similar and taxes mean there is not such a large difference at NQ, but US firm salaries seem to be considerably higher thereafter.I am also considering immigrating to the US in the future, though from my understanding this simply doesn't happen very often whether I work for a US or UK firm, so I guess that is not a consideration.</blockquote>
