Abstract
Transnational and International Legal Career (TILC) opportunities will likely increase in the post-COVID 19 era. Being competitive for top TILC opportunities in academia, policy, practice and beyond requires some knowledge for conscious calculation. Although globalization and technology have made knowledge more accessible and could guide one’s calculation, personal experiences offer a clearer pathway. Backed by personal stories, this article is a career autoethnography synthesizing and building on public lectures on TILC opportunities, including graduate and post-graduate work, delivered at the International Law Student Association workshops of University of Ibadan and Obafemi Awolowo University. The writer discusses how to navigate this career path. Bachelor of Laws (LLB) and Juris Doctorate (JD) students are the primary audience, while young lawyers (including graduate students) are the secondary audience, although non-law undergraduates and graduates could also benefit.
