from the second post, we can assume he was talking about a job/internship at a firm overseas, most likely UK or some other english-speaking country (I hope, because if it was HongKong or some other place, the information would be useless for me seeing I only know English and French

)

Ok, instead of waiting for OP to share, which hasn't happened to me yet, I did a search and combed through the results. Here are some threads that I found informative. Enjoy everyone!

Nice! Although I took some glances at most of the threads and it's not very helpful (not many people have experience in the particular interest). However, there was one post by 'General Tso' who talked about how he knew people who had SA position at biglaw international offices--dla piper in Paris, specifically. More research time!

(an SA position in paris would make me...delirious)

on the comment about generaltso.

There are a few other posters who seem to have some experience. Read through some of them again, and you will see. Although, these threads are very limited. I wish that we can have more info.
