Summer Employment Offers
If an employer makes an offer to a candidate before the beginning of Early Interview Program (EIP), which begins this year on July 24, 2023, we ask that such offer remain open until at least August 7, 2023 or 14 days after the date of the offer letter, whichever is later. This practice allows Miami Law students to fully participate in EIP and make an informed decision about their summer employment, which helps to ensure the best fit for employers and students alike.
When registering for EIP, we ask that employers provide office-specific information as to whether they will accept early applications, and, if so, details about their process. Employers who engage in pre-EIP recruiting should offer interview times and formats to minimize students’ travel time and expense as well as potential disruption to their first year summer studies or employment. Employers should also provide students interviewed prior to EIP with regular updates of their status including as of five business days prior to the start of EIP so they can make fully informed EIP bidding decisions.
Offers made following interviews conducted during EIP should remain open for 14 days following the date of the offer letter. This applies to offers to current summer associates to return for a second summer the next year, as well as offers made to 2Ls not previously employed by the firm.
Students Previously Employed by Employer
Employers offering full-time positions to commence following graduation to candidates previously employed by them should leave those offers open for at least 14 days following the date of the offer letter or October 1 of the student’s final year of law school, whichever is later.
Students Not Previously Employed by Employer
Employers offering full-time positions to commence following graduation to students not previously employed by them should leave those offers open for at least 14 days following the date of the offer letter.
