WELCOME TO CAREER SERVICES!

The Career Services Office (CSO) prepares students for employment by introducing them to the career options available to them and developing their job search skills in interviewing and writing resumes and cover letters, and communicating. It presents employment opportunities through numerous resources that include on-campus interview programs, off-campus recruitment events and job fairs; and access to sources announcing available positions.

Graduates of the Thurgood Marshall School of Law are employed throughout the country. Most enter private practice and government; others work in large corporations and small businesses, public interest, the judiciary, and the military.

OUR MISSION

Acknowledging the constancy of change accompanying the globalization of the legal profession, Career Services equips students with the tools they will need not only to secure their first employment but also to map a career path that can take them beyond that initial experience. While we recognize the uniqueness of every individual, we expose all students to numerous legal career choices, from the more conventional opportunities with traditional law firms of varying sizes, to alternatives in public interest, government, academia, the judiciary, and business and industry. We equally support students who are exploring, or who are already committed to, careers that lie outside the legal profession but in which a law degree is preferred, if not required.
