JU Law School hosts Career Counseling Session

Jammu, May 06: The Law School, University of Jammu, hosted an inspiring career counseling session with Ms. Kanchan Nanda, Founder of Futures Abroad - a leading education consulting firm - that redefined career possibilities for aspiring legal professionals. Presenting a compelling vision of a legal landscape where global credentials, technological fluency, and human-centric skills converge, Ms. Nanda transformed conventional career perspectives into dynamic professional roadmaps. She illuminated pathways to international practice through key qualifications like the SQE (UK) and NY Bar (US), while powerfully articulating how AI is creating new frontiers in legal analytics and compliance, reminding students that "while algorithms may draft contracts, they'll never replace the lawyer who understands the human story behind each case." The session masterfully balanced practical guidance on securing transformative internships and building global networks with profound insights about maintaining the human edge in an increasingly digital profession. Earlier, Prof. Seema Rohmetra, Director of The Law School, set the tone by underscoring the critical role of career guidance in helping law students navigate evolving professional landscapes. Dr. Monika Bhardwaj, faculty member, delivered concluding remarks that captured the session's energizing effect - evident in the vibrant discussions that continued long after the formal program ended. More than just career advice, this session equipped students with what Ms. Nanda termed "the degree of adaptability" - that crucial combination of vision, skills, and relentless growth that will define successful legal careers in this transformative era.
