Employer Development Update
With the spring semester about to start, the CSO wanted to give you a brief summary of the geographic areas we have visited over the past few months. We base our trips on your responses to our geographic surveys at the beginning of the year so if there is a market you are interested in be sure to let your career counselor know. Now, on to the summaries:
New York
We met with a number of non-profit organizations and an alumnus whose practice revolves around the importation and exportation of liquor, wine and beer.
Los Angeles
On two trips to L.A. we met with a number of government employers and law firms of various sizes, including the firm of an alumnus who is actively looking for both clerks and attorneys.
San Francisco
We met with the City Attorney’s office as well as a few firms and a non-profit organization who all provided great advice on how to break into the San Francisco market.
Columbus
We met with seven different employers who were all excited at the opportunity to recruit from Case, including both government employers and law firms of various sizes.
Pittsburgh
We met with a number of employers including a mid-sized health law firm who was impressed with the quality of our health law program and subsequently posted open positions in their summer associate program.
Seattle & Portland
We met with a number of employers, both government employers and law firms, who provided tips on how to get into the market and alumni who were interested in helping current students get their foot in the door.
Charlotte
We met with ten employers who committed to participating in our interview programs and were extremely impressed with quality of students that attend and graduate from Case.
If you are interested in these markets and want to learn more about the employers we visited or the local employers that we visit throughout the year, just make an appointment with a counselor in the CSO. We are happy to talk with you about the employers we met with, their hiring practices, and the advice that they have for students.
