Krishan Neelendra (below) felt a 2.1 in law from the University of Oxford was not sufficient to win a training contract at a good law firm. Nor his list of private pursuits: playing football, tennis, cricket and hockey for his college (Somerville), presenting a show on Oxide, the university radio station, a role on his college’s undergraduate committee and contributing poetry to Cherwell, the student newspaper. Despite working at a pro-bono law organisation, he still believed his CV needed something extra to make him sparkle. So he did an internship at Lantai partners, a Chinese law firm, in Beijing.
克里尚•尼伦德拉(Krishan Neelendra)认为，他在牛津大学(University of Oxford)法学专业二等一级的成绩（2.1，相当于manbetx3.0 大学本科平均分75分以上，译者注），还不足以让他赢得一家优秀律师事务所的培训合同（training contract，在英国，在律所完成两年培训是成为正式执业律师的必要步骤，这种合同本质上是工作合同——译者注）。他曾为他所就读的牛津大学萨默维尔学院(Somerville)踢足球、打网球、板球和冰球，在大学广播电台Oxide主持一档节目，在所在学院本科生委员会任职，还在学生报纸《查韦尔》(Cherwell)上发表过诗歌，但他的这些经历，都不足以帮他实现赢得律所培训合同这个目标。尽管他当时正在一家非盈利法律机构工作，但他仍认为，他的简历中还需要有一些别的内容，才能让他脱颖而出。因此他来到北京，在一家名为兰台的manbetx3.0 本土律师事务所实习了一段时间。
