Thank you for the suggestion, Sophia! I’ll be sure to add to my list of topics to cover

Great video !! /Fathima

Incredibly helpful video, Julia. I am planning on coming to Australia to study a Juris Doctor degree. Could you please answer a couple of questions for me? 1. Like many other international students, I will have to work 20 hours a week to manage my living expenses. Considering the heavy course load of the JD and the need to keep working unpaid internships would one be able to manage everything together? 2. Do international students enjoy the same opportunities regarding employment as domestic students? If not, is a JD in Australia worth it? I am very grateful for your channel and the perspective it has provided me. Thank you!

Hi Karnelia, my honest answer to question 1 would be - it is really hard to work 20 hours per week, potentially complete an unpaid internship and also study for your JD. The pressure of the study workload mostly comes from the timeframe in which the JD is completed. What a lot of people I know have done is they started out full time and then when they got a legal job (paid) they moved their JD to part time. That way they were able to get paid, continue their study and keep getting the relevant legal experience. As an international student though, I imagine it will be difficult to balance everything as you're only allowed to work a certain number of hours. In answer to 2. international students definitely don't have the same freedoms afforded to domestic students in terms of employment but where there is a will there is a way. It may be a longer road to receiving your permanent residency and then applying for roles, but it can be done. I understand that as solicitor (once admitted) there are opportunities to receive a permanent residency through skilled migration ( I am not an immigration lawyer so you'll have to do some research on this) and once you have the PR you're on the same employment rights as domestic students. The process might take a while though.

I wanted to add also, if you get a JD in Australia, you dont have to stay in Australia. Your admission and if you get some legal experience will allow you to work in other jurisdictions like NZ, HK, UK and even Dubai.

Hi! Most law firms will advertise on their website and LinkedIn. Job websites also have these postings. It helps to connect to a few recruiters as well so they keep you in mind in case anything comes up

Do you think doing the JD part time is better for the workload etc?

Thank you so much for this great content. I only have one question. Kindly advise. When one has obtained a Bachelor of degree in law LLB in a foreign jurisdiction but not yet admitted to the bar, what are the chances of working in Australia?

I've met a few lawyers from NZ who were working in Australia. Not sure if that's something you'd like to do but I think its definitely possible.

I am a lawyer from srilanka, to practice in Australia what should I do?

Hy mam hope you doing well.. I want to ask that I am a law graduate from India and now I want to migrate to Australia so can you help me out that what can I choose in between JD or masters , and as per my knowledge JD is also a kind of bachelors like LLB in India, so if I go for Masters then will I go for practical legal training course or paralegal qualifications , I am quite confused in it. Hope you will help me in this .

if you want to practice law in Australia, my understanding is that even if you have a law degree from another country such as India, you will need to complete some JD subjects. I dont have the specifications but you will essentially need to make sure you have an Australian law degree to practice. An Australian LLM alone will not allow you to practice law in Australia.

Hi Julia

Hey Julia! Hope you're doing well. Can you please provide insight regarding my query? Whether internships in law firms in Australia are paid or not? I'm an Indian law graduate and planning to move to Australia to pursue JD there. That's why, I want to know more about the programme and work opportunities as well. I found your channel while I was searching for the same and it's worth the time.
