Response: We have scheduled our virtual Employer Interview Week (EIW) program for July 26-28, 2023. EIW will include private sector employers interviewing 2L students for 2024 summer positions and 3L students for 2024 entry-level positions. Our Fall On-Campus Interview Program (“Fall OCI”) takes place from September-October and features private and public sector employers recruiting 2Ls, 3Ls and LLM students for 2024 summer and entry-level positions. We anticipate that our 2023 Fall OCI program will be virtual.
