<\/figure>\n\n\n\nYou can even start your own law firm later if you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The incredible market exposure, knowledge and credibility obtained while working at the SEBI will be a huge advantage. Several SEBI law officers have started their own law firms after working at SEBI for a few years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are a few examples of people who have started their own law firm or joined a company\/law firm directly in senior positions after working at SEBI:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Sumit Agrawal (2007 grad), at 31, started Regstreet Law Advisors, after working for 9 years for SEBI<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Sandeep Parekh, started Finsec Law (one of LawSikho\u2019s students is placed with Finsec Law as well), after working for 2.5 years with SEBI <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- R.S. Loona, started\/worked at Alliance Corporate Lawyers after working for 4 years with SEBI<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Dharmishta N. Raval started Raval & Raval Advocates, after working for SEBI for 15 years.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- P.R. Ramesh started working as Chief of Compliance and Legal at SBI Capital Markets Ltd. after working for SEBI for 11 years.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Raghavendra Prasad started working with MCX Stock Exchange Ltd. as VP Legal after working for SEBI for 3.5 years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, people who have started their own law firms have quit as early as 3 to 4 years to as late as 15 years, so you have a lot of flexibility to decide later whether you\u2019d like to continue or quit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And of course if you decide to stay longer, the additional experience always counts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since you have power and prestige of working with one of India\u2019s most influential regulators, your influence only increases with seniority!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your position and stature is well-recognised globally as well, because India is the fifth largest securities market in the world! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
It is definitely leading the global charts as far as IPOs are concerned! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
SEBI officers have a high level of autonomy and freedom from political interference, compared to other government jobs, such as civil services, and often the judiciary as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All these factors make working as a SEBI Law Officer a very exciting opportunity for anyone who wants a government job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our student was reinvigorated after hearing these insights and exceeded her study targets that month! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does this inspire you to prepare for the SEBI Grade A Legal Officers exam?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t worry, it is very much possible to prepare for this exam even if you were preparing for other government exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SEBI Grade A Legal Officers\u2019 Exam syllabus has significant overlaps with other government exams such as judiciary, and the competition is much less as very few people know about the opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even amongst those who know about this exam, very few people prepare seriously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have been preparing for other government jobs, you can prepare for this exam by just investing approx. 2-3 hours per day for 6 months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
