2008 FALL ON-CAMPUS INTERVIEW SCHEDULE
(as of 7/8/08)
(NOTE: Many employers we contacted are unable to conduct on-campus interviews but have requested that students/alumni send resumes for consideration for positions. Expanded information is available to U of M students and alumni in the clerk and associate job listings binder in Career Services Office.)
NOTE: During the fall and spring recruiting seasons, the Judge Advocate General (JAG) Corps of the various branches of the military interview on campus. The Law School understands these are difficult times and that we need to support our country's efforts to combat terrorism. The American Association of Law Schools, of which we are a member, expressly prohibits discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. By law (the Solomon Amendment), the Law School allows this employer to recruit our students on campus or risk the loss of federal student financial aid funding.
