Throughout the year, employers contact our office to inquire into ways they may reach out to students and inform students about their organization. There are several ways to get involved as a way to market your organization:
Employers are encouraged to host receptions and participate in career related or practice specific information programs or panels throughout the year. During the fall, employers may host receptions and information sessions for second, third and LL.M. students and first year students in the spring. Employers may not communicate directly or indirectly with first year students before December 1.
Each fall and spring the Office of Career Services offers mock interview programs to help students improve their interview skills and prepare for on-campus interviews and self-directed career searches. The Dallas Association of Young Lawyers works with our office to schedule local attorneys to serve as interviewers during this program.
We will work with you to schedule your event to accommodate your needs and objectives. For all events, we will publicize to students through our email notices, post on our OCS events calendar and assist you with any audio/visual and catering needs. When contacting us about an event, please include the following information:
If you want to discuss any of the above, please contact Karen Sargent at kcsargent@smu.edu or 214-768-3893.
