The Placement Committee of Government College is one of the most important Committees of the

College, shouldering the responsibility of providing a stepping stone to success to budding lawyers

graduating from the college.

The Committee aims at exhausting all possible opportunities of recruitment with law firms,

counsel, LPOs and corporate houses. It acts as a link between the recruiters and the students,

thereby fulfilling the needs of both, and enabling the students to get placements on campus. The

members of the Placement Committee strive hard to ensure that maximum students from the

college get placed, thus providing them with an opportunity to optimize their skills.

The Annual On-Campus Recruitment Programme 2014 - 2015 was a huge success, as the Placement

Committee, true to its motto, succeeded in having more than 100 top law firms, counsel and

corporate houses recruit our students.

Since the last few years, the Placement Committee has been implementing the recruitment process

throughout the year, thus functioning all year through. The Committee organizes two placement

weeks throughout the year, one in September, which is exclusively for associates, and another in

February, which covers Associates, Article Clerks and Interns. This widening scope of the

Committee is sure to benefit both the students and the potential employers.

The participation of a large number of students, lawyers, solicitors, law firms and corporate houses

was a source of inspiration for all students who work zealously for the Committee, and will

encourage them to undertake the Recruitment Program of the current academic year with even

greater zeal and enthusiasm.

The Placement Committee, that is, the Recruitment Coordination Committee of the college works

ardently throughout the year to ensure that students from the campus get every available

opportunity of recruitment with Law Firms, LPOs, Counsels or Corporate Houses.

The Bi-Annual Recruitment Programme 2014 - 2015 was a grand success as the committee succeeded

in getting more than 100 top law firms, counsels and corporate houses to recruit from our college.

The participation of a large number of advocates, solicitors, law firms, LPOs and corporate houses

showed that the diligent work of the committee members paid off and further ensured that the same

enthusiasm and zeal is continued throughout the current academic year.

The Placement Cell strives for professionalism, commitment and fairness. Above all, it strives for the

promotion of strong relationships between the recruiters and the campus for the ultimate benefit of

both of them. We sincerely hope that our bond with the past recruiters is only strengthened and a

strong bond is made with the new recruiters.

It would indeed be our privilege to cater to your requirements of associates Article clerk and interns

for the batch of 2016, 2017 & 2018. The detailed procedure is mentioned elsewhere in the brochure.

On this note, we hope to have an incredible experience and a very fruitful year ahead for both our

esteemed recruiters and the students.

Best Wishes,

Looking back in time, one becomes aware of the immeasurably important role this pioneering law institute has played

in the judicial, political, social and historical background of India. Legal luminaries like Dr B. R. Ambedkar, the architect of

the Indian Constitution, Justice M. C.Chagla, former Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court, Lokmanya Tilak, freedom

fighter, Sir Motilal Setalvad, the first Attorney-General of Independent India, Smt. Prathiba Patil, Hon'ble Ex-President

of India, Mr. Goolam E. Vahanwati, the Attorney-General of India and many other prominent personalities have left

their footprints behind for time immemorial. Today, one cannot help but relive all those memorable moments which

contributed to making this institution the most distinguished law college in the country. With a heritage spanning more

than a century and a half, the Government Law College, Mumbai, has dominated the legal landscape of India since

1855.The College is a staunch believer in the importance of knowledge and the freedom of expression. It is an

educational institution endowed with a tremendously scholastic environment, a thoroughly competent faculty and

professionally focused students. Along with a rigorous curriculum, the college boasts of several co-curricular activities

such as Moot Court Competitions, Debates, publishing of the Law Review and College Magazine, providing Legal Aid,

etc. It believes that it is essential to bring together the youth of today in spirited debate and discussion, to facilitate a

better understanding and to tackle the global issues faced today. Before 1855, there was no formal legal education for

legal officers and lawyers in this country. In the same year, the Government Law School was established at the

Elphistone Institute. Government Law College, Mumbai, which completed its sesquicentennial year in 2005, is one of

the premier law colleges in India and has produced scores of distinguished alumni who have made an enduring impact

on the legal jurisprudence of the country.

WHY GLC ?

GLC believes in the blend of imparting education along with gaining practical experience, thus ensuring that students

are well versed with the intricacies of the practical application of law in diverse areas, even before graduating.

Solicitors: Government Law College is one of the few legal institutions which gives its students an opportunity to enrol

for the Solicitors' Exams while undergoing their Graduation studies. Taking full advantage of being situated in the

financial capital of India, the students of GLC work as article clerks simultaneously, thereby fulfilling one of the

requirements of a full-fledged solicitor.

Chartered Accountant, Company Secretary, Chartered Financial Accountant: Students get an opportunity to undergo

add-on professional courses like C.S, C.A and C.F.A. These courses enable students to expand their knowledge and

awareness even as fresh graduates.

INTERNSHIPS: Corporate / Law Firms / LPOs: Mumbai, the commercial capital of India, is home to several Law Firms,

Corporate Houses and MNC's. Due to flexible lecture timings, students start pursuing their internships from the second

year of college itself. Thus, at the time of graduation, they have the expertise and knowledge, which can be considered

to be at par with working law professionals. GLC is the only educational institution which exposes its students to a

Pandora of work opportunities in the legal field.

Judicial: The proximity of the college to the Bombay High Court offers another incentive to the college students. They

undergo internships under sitting judges, counsel and senior counsel. The presence of famous legal luminaries at a

close proximity to the college encourages the students to go beyond the curriculum and undertake long-term

internships and thus enables them to outshine others in the practical field. During college vacations, our students have

successfully interned with Supreme Court judges as well.
