If You Have Not Met with Your Career Counselor Recently - It is Time to Make an Appointment!

One of the first lessons we learn as a child in elementary school is that we are all different. Some people are stronger in certain areas than others. This is illustrated in your classes, your hobbies, and your goals. Some students understand legal concepts immediately while others need to put more time into it to get the same results. So, the same applies to career counseling!

Each student has a different experience with the CSO office based on their specific, personal needs. We meet one-on-one with students to review resumes, cover letters, thanks you letters and any other relevant information related to employment. The CSO staff will assist you in completing a comprehensive plan for your short and long term employment plans. The CSO also has an extensive resource room with books related to job searches, networking and files on all employers we have met with as well as organizations students have requested we learn more about.

Even if you have already received summer or permanent employment, it is important to touch base with the CSO counselors. We may be able to give you insight into the position you have accepted or what to expect with certain types of employers. The CSO is trained in providing excellent advice related to the practice of law.

Every career counselor in the CSO is an attorney. We have all been through the law school experience and we have a wide variety of legal experience. The CSO staff works hard to provide the student body excellent programming, interview programs, student counseling and job postings. We are here to assist you - make an appointment and meet with a counselor! We are confident you will find the meeting to be productive and insightful, and that you will leave with a solid plan and steps to take to put into action.

Please take advantage of the first hand knowledge of your career counselors!
