Working in a company where every lawyer who’s in a considerable senior position is your junior at the Bar is very limiting, it’s like a humbling experience everyday you go to work. That you, even with your external foreign experience, that is, actual work and hustle experience in a foreign country is significantly viewed as a junior associate compared to people who’ve been predominantly based in Nigeria for most of their careers.
Today one of such people told me that to even assume my role I need to be taken abroad within the first 3 months to train and meet the international team.
And I thought, "Didn't I just do that for the first 14 years of my career, what'd I miss?"
