August 6: On-Campus Interviews begin and continue throughout August.
Students wishing to participate in OCI should plan their summers accordingly, and in particular, make yourself available for interviews at Mitchell Hamline beginning August 6 and throughout the month of August. Employers will generally not make exceptions for students who are out of town during on-campus interviews.
In general, most employers participating in On-Campus Interviews (OCI) are seeking students who will graduate in 2021 (typically for law clerk or summer associate positions). Some employers participating in OCI will be seeking candidates who will graduate in 2020 (typically for post-grad attorney positions). Students are encouraged to read each individual employer’s eligibility criteria carefully, and consult your Career Counselor regarding any questions about your eligibility to participate or apply.
If you have any questions, please reach out to your Career Counselor or careers@mitchellhamline.edu. We hope to see you at the OCI Information Session on Monday, March 25 at 2:15pm in Room 188!
