Recruiting at UIC Law

From day one, University of Illinois Chicago School of Law (UIC Law) students are being prepared for practice. Our students start on that path in our top ranked Legal Writing program. They continue refining their professional skills by participating in legal competition honors programs, our Community Legal Clinics, and at more than 50 externship placement sites. Our students hone their practical skills in real-world environments and understand the importance of hard work, dedication, and client service. By recruiting at UIC Law, you will have an opportunity to select from an outstanding pool of law students and alumni with real-world knowledge, abilities, and experience that are the hallmarks of a UIC Law legal education.

UIC Law's Career Services Office staff is committed to connecting students with employers. Our goal is to provide you with a wide range of programs and services tailored to help you identify talented students and graduates to meet your specific hiring needs. We accomplish this through on-campus interview programs in the fall and spring, cooperative and joint interview programs for summer hiring, resume collections throughout the year, and by maintaining an online job database.

We offer several recruiting options to connect you with outstanding legal talent for the semester or summer law clerk positions, clinical internship opportunities, or post-bar and post-graduate employment.

If you have law student or attorney hiring needs, we invite you to consider UIC Law students.
