Career Services

The Career Services Office (CSO) assists law school students and recent graduates with their career goals by informing them of career options, providing job search strategies and resources, and connecting them with potential employers. With experienced counselors and a dedicated staff, the CSO offers one-on-one career counseling; conducts a 1L résumé workshop and mock interview program; invites speakers to address students on career-related topics; publishes career-related handbooks; maintains a career resource library; and presents professional development workshops, panels, and network opportunities for students seeking careers in a variety of settings. In addition, the CSO coordinates three on-campus interview programs including Public Service Career Day, which is the largest public service job fair for law students in Texas, and more than two dozen off-campus recruitment programs held nationwide. The CSO maintains a mentor network that connects students with UT Law alumni, and an online job bank that lists summer clerkships and internships, fellowships and part-time and postgraduate opportunities throughout Texas and the world. Students are welcome to become members of the CSO-sponsored student organization, Action Committee for Career Services, which partners with the CSO to perform employer outreach, staff on-campus recruiting programs and receptions, and help develop career-related resources.
