A: Yes. Based on conversations with employer partners, most have postponed their recruitment until January 2021. The likely start date of the On-Campus Interview (OCI) program will be Jan. 25, 2021. However, some employers wish to recruit as scheduled through the Résumé Collect program and will be holding off-site and/or virtual interviews this fall. Opportunities will be listed on Symplicity under the OCI tab as well as the JOBS tab. Please monitor both tabs (and your email) frequently as employers are registering on a rolling basis.
The OCI and Résumé Collect Programs will offer Summer 2021 recruitment opportunities for students who have, at a minimum, completed the full 1L curriculum by May 2021, and postgraduate opportunities for students who will complete their degree by May 2021. In the meantime, the Office of Career Services continues to be fully operational and in constant contact with employers to maximize opportunities at this time. Please continue to also closely monitor your email for any changes or updates. Timing will vary widely depending on practice setting, region, etc. You are encouraged to reach out to the Career Services Office at the earliest opportunity to review your individual needs, plans, and ideas.
