Are you sure you're not just falling into tech chauvinism here? According to LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/linklaters/people/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/linklaters/people/ people who work for that firm largely went to Oxford, Cambridge, and LSE. All you're pointing out is that white shoe law firms that hire from the top-tier universities in the country pay their associates extremely well, even as they do work you consider boring and unsexy.
- chrisseaton 7y agoI meant they aren’t headhunting - anyone can apply. It’s not like they’re hand-picking specific people. It’s a normal open job anyone can go for.
- ForHackernews 7y agoYeah, but random normal people aren't going to get it. It's the same thing as a FAANG job: any rando can apply but they're gonna get screened out before the first stage.
