都有機會，不過耍名牌law school高成績畢業.最好流利兩文三語，英國law firm都做唔少大陸客.

對，讀埋master, 再加interview 出色. 實在太多唔同國家的尖子想留低工作，競爭好大.反而有冇英國護照唔係律師行的考慮因素.

朋友囡囡打算讀Law，但佢話 oxford or cambridge 只能報一間，我唔記得咩原因，咁應該點揀?

有冇居留權 ( 當然有EU passport都OK)， 絕對係律師行重要考慮因素！

如果－般英大學讀law,有機會留低？（只特區護照；如冇得留低又點？

宣佈脱歐之後，一般大行都請少左人.朋友女兒有護照，在英名law school讀埋master,都揾唔到工，返左香港讀pcl.每人際遇難講

My niece (studying in Durham, of 100% Hong Kong origin , ie no UK or EU passport) just obtained a TC offer from a magic circle firm and a boutique firm in London after finishing her summer vacation schemes with them. Her fluency in Chinese (spoken mandarin at mother tongue level) and participation in students activities with leadership roles is a definite advantage.

In fact, Cambridge is still the most preferred university of the biggest Law firm (followed by Oxford and Durham):

The reason why I put so many 'd' in the first place is that I do not want to evoke any argument.  I am neither a solicitor nor barrister but I do have connection with many law students in HK and UK.  That's what they told me, so please ignore what I said (I will edit that out) and continue the discussion.

I can't draw the conclusion you've made from the link you provided but rather Oxford comes first among the city firms.

One significant difference is that exams are taken every year in Cambridge but concentrated in the 3rd (final) year in Oxford.

Oxford's master (BCL) is considered to be more prestigious than Cambridge's LLM.

如冇得留低:return to Hong Kong and take the conversion exam

又唔駛咁悲觀咁擔心。留意吓英國新聞，我相信畢業後工作簽證不久會恢復，proposal上咗國會啦。

This is true! Oxford’s BCL (master) is more prestigious than Cambridge’s LLM.

You are right, but the 2018 survey shows Cambridge, Oxford, Durham, and the rest, in that order. I was told  the survey results a month ago. Will post it when it is available online.
