Fall 2008
Recruiting Information
Fall
recruiting involves a number of different opportunities including
the Fall OCI, Resume Referral and Direct Contact programs, off
campus job fairs, government honors programs and fellowship
applications. Despite the name, fall
recruiting often begins in late spring so be sure to review the
following information so that you do not miss any important
deadlines.
On-Campus Interview Program
("OCI")
Every
fall beginning in August, law firms, corporations and government
agencies come on campus to interview 2L and 3L law students for
summer associate positions and permanent placement after graduation,
respectively. In order to participate in OCI, you need
to submit the necessary materials requested by each employer (i.e.
resume, writing sample, transcript, etc.) by the specific
deadline. CPC advisors are available all summer, in person by
email and phone, to discuss which employers you should target and to
assist you in updating your resume in a timely manner. All
correspondence involving the Fall OCI program will be provided via
email to the email address you have listed on Symplicity and many
emails will be sent over the summer providing you with bidding
instructions and deadline reminders. Be sure to check your
email regularly so that you do not miss any important
information.
The
Fall OCI program will take place in two phases.
Phase I: Phase I of OCI is
open exclusively to those employers who are members of
NALP
(www.nalpdirectory.com). Bidding for Phase I of OCI will
take place from Tuesday, July 1 through
Monday, July 14 via Symplicity. Interviews for
Phase I will take place from Monday, August
11 through Friday, August 15. Please note that some
of the employers participating in Phase I of OCI will host
receptions for those students selected to interview. These
receptions generally take place at the firm the night before the
firm’s interviews although some receptions may take place the week

Announcing the
Federal Service Student Ambassadors
Announcing: The Federal
Service Student Ambassadors
WHAT:
The Federal Service
Student Ambassadors, sponsored by the nonpartisan, nonprofit
organization, Partnership for Public Service, is designed to
increase interest in federal service on college campuses through
developing a corps of passionate student advocates (you!) who will
actively promote public service following their completion of a
summer federal internship.
WHEN:
Ambassadors will
return to campus following their internship ready to lead major
outreach efforts to their campus community during the 2008-2009
school year. Apply soon because applications will be reviewed as
they are received!
WHY:
Our government is
facing a crisis: In the next five years, nearly one-third of the 1.9
million federal employees will be eligible for retirement. In order
to meet the challenges that we face as a nation, it is critical that
we have talented and skilled applicants that want to make a
difference in our country by applying to be a part of the federal
workforce.
BONUS!
Ambassadors will
attend a dynamic training in July in Washington, DC with nine other
Ambassadors from universities across the country. Ambassadors will
also receive regular feedback and assistance from staff members in
Washington, DC as well as from their school and fellow Ambassadors.
They will also receive a $2,200 stipend for their service.
Ambassadors will have
an experience to add to their resume that really sets them apart
from other applicants. They will lead a major outreach effort on
their campus, meeting with faculty and staff, writing articles for
newspapers and magazines, and educating their campus communities
about opportunities in the federal government.
WHO:
The Partnership is
seeking Ambassadors for the 2008-2009 school year who will be
participating in an internship with a federal agency in Washington,
DC for the summer of 2008. Ideal candidates will possess strong
interpersonal and communications skills, demonstrate a commitment to
public service and be actively involved in leadership roles and/or
extracurricular activities.
HOW:
For more information
regarding this opportunity, including a full position overview,
qualifications, and application instructions, download the

Teaching Fellowship. The Fellow will work with experienced CED
practitioner Brian Glick. S/he will help supervise students in
client representation and co-teach the CED Clinic seminar and is

although a later start could be arranged.
Fordham’s CED
Clinic represents New York City groups fighting for social justice
in low-income communities of color and low-wage, predominantly
immigrant workforces. As their general counsel, the clinic
helps sustain effective organizations and build institutions- health
clinics, childcare centers, worker-owned enterprises- that empower
their participants while providing desperately needed services and
opportunities. The clinic supports neighborhood efforts to
shape development, limit gentrification and win community benefits
agreements. It also assists small grassroots groups with
incorporation, bylaws and tax exemption. Students learn
transactional business lawyering in a nonprofit social justice
setting.
They seek an
attorney with at least two years’ experience, preferably more, who
is interested in pursuing a career in clinical teaching.
Spanish fluency and transactional or social lawyering experience
preferred. The fellow will receive a stipend commensurate with
his/her experience, plus full benefits and support for attending
trainings and conferences.
To apply,
please e-mail a resume and letter of interest to cedfellowship@law.fordham.edu.
Applications will be considered on a rolling basis.

There are exciting new

Four United States Attorneys’ Offices ("USAO"s) and the
Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys ("EOUSA") are formal HP
participants this year, hiring approximately 16 entry-level
attorneys. Applicants interested in becoming an Assistant U.S.
Attorney ("AUSA") will be able to designate the “U.S. Attorney’s
Office” as one of their employment preferences, then, later in the
application, select the specific offices. Due to the level of
responsibility held by AUSAs, these opportunities are only available

Nation’s most scenic national parks. Hiring for Cheyenne, WY, or
Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park, the Summer Intern
will assist with criminal and civil cases in U.S. District Court in
Cheyenne or will assist in the prosecution of a range of
misdemeanors in Yellowstone National Park.
Civil Division
applicants will be able to designate specific sections of interest.
Executive Office of Immigration Review applicants will be
able to designate geographic areas of preference by city and state,
and comment on any geographic restrictions on their assignment.
The Honors Program application has been expanded to permit
applicants serving in post-J.D. legal fellowships to apply online on
a conditional basis. OARM will determine whether an exception to
policy will be granted on a case-by-case basis.

Job Fair on July 14, 2008
The National
Black Prosecutors Association ("NBPA") will host its Job Fair on
Monday, July 14, 2008 at the
Broward County Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale, FL. The
NBPA invites all interested law students, alumni and practicing
attorneys to attend this year's Job Fair. The Job Fair's
goal is to promote diversity in prosecutors' offices by
providing a forum where prospective employers can easily access
highly qualified minority
candidates nationwide.
The Job Fair
begins at 8:00 a.m. with registration and check-in; interviews begin
at 9:00 a.m. At the culmination of the Job Fair, there will be
a reception for all Job Fair participants and
Convention attendees. The reception will afford Job Fair
attendees an additional opportunity to further network with
prospective employers and experienced
prosecutors.
In addition to
the Job Fair reception, all Job Fair participants are invited
to attend a free career seminar entitled, "Strategies for a
Successful Interview." The seminar will take place
on Sunday, July 13th from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the

participants with effective interviewing techniques.
Moreover, Job
Fair attendees are welcome to attend the entire
conference. Students and 2008 law graduates are invited to
attend Conference seminars for free. However, other events,
such as luncheons, dinners and receptions must be paid for

The Boston/DC
Lawyers Group Job Fairs (2L, 3L)
The
Boston Lawyers Group ("BLG") is a consortium of over 40 of the
largest law firms, government agencies and corporations in the
City of Boston. Its mission is to promote the
hiring, retention and professional development of
attorneys of color in the member organizations. A primary
goal of the BLG is to increase the number of law students of
colorwhom member organizations hire for their
Boston location. One of the significant ways in which this goal
is accomplished is through member participation in the
annual BLG Boston Job Fair. Employers who participate in the
job fair hire for positions in their Boston office.
Employers will be interviewing second-year law students
for 2009 summer associate/law clerk positions and, in
a limited number of cases, employers will
interview third-year law students for Fall 2009
first-year associate positions. Second and third year law
students of color are welcome and encouraged to participate in
the fair.
Please note:
Although the BLG runs a job fair in
Washington, DC and Boston, MA, students can participate in
only one fair.
Registration is now open until July 11,
2008. The Boston Job
Fair will be held on August 15, 2008 at the Intercontinental Hotel in
Boston, MA. The DC Job Fair will be held on Thursday, August
