Career Services

USD School of Law's Career Services offers students and graduates comprehensive job search assistance. Among the services provided are career advising sessions, employment listings, interviewing programs, panel presentations and workshops.

To help students develop the skills needed for a successful job search, Career Services offers individual resume and cover letter review, video mock interviewing, and ongoing job strategy sessions. A series of available career guides lists employer contact information and describe various career options, including judicial clerkships, internships, fellowships, nontraditional careers, private law practice, and jobs with government agencies and public interest organizations. By sponsoring workshops and informational panels, and co-sponsoring career fairs with other Southern California law schools, Career Services also provides students with opportunities to meet practicing attorneys.

Year-round assistance is available to help students secure school year, summer and permanent employment. Each year, the office coordinates the School of Law's Fall Recruiting Program, which provides opportunities for students to contact and interview with more than 250 employers located in California and nationwide. In addition, Career Services arranges reciprocal services with other law schools, giving students the opportunity to utilize law school career services located in other cities.
