Re: Hong Kong Refugee Advice Centre
That's awesome! I applied to them a few weeks ago. Do you mind telling me how and when you heard from them?
From what I hear, employers just want to talk to you about your experience and hear what you have to say. It seems like generally they don't judge you based on what you did unless it's really exceptional, like a biglaw fellowship or something. Plus a lot of people do study abroad and I don't think they're at a disadvantage, so the same should apply to you. Don't let the possibility of what employers may think affect your choice of where to spend this summer. It's still a legal job and that's what matters most.
