Fall Firm Reception

Start date and time
Location
Southwestern Law School, Bullocks Wilshire Bldg, 2nd Floor
Short Description

Small and mid-size law firms are the largest (and currently most actively hiring) population of employers. Each fall, the Career Services Office recruits firms and brings them on campus for mini-interviews. This event is open to 2Ls, 3Ls, and recent grads. No application is required. Simply bring your resume, dress in business attire, and meet with employers who are looking to hire. The mini-interviews are approximately 7 minutes in length for each student and serve as the gateway to securing a more traditional interview that may result in being hired. Preparation is important to stand out from the crowd.
