Employer Registration for On-Campus Interviewing

The Center for Professional Development invites you to register for Seattle University School of Law’s 2022 Winter or Spring On-Campus Interviewing (OCI) Program. OCI is a great way to hire 1Ls and 2Ls for summer or school year internships and law clerk positions, and 3Ls for post-grad associate positions.

Winter OCI interviews will take place January 18-21 (virtual and in-person options are available); employer registration will remain open until December 15. 

Spring OCI interviews will take place March 7-10 (virtual and in-person options are available); employer registration will remain open until February 11.

OCI is managed through our Symplicity system. To register for an OCI, first log in to Symplicity.  If you have never done so, you must first create an account. Go to Symplicity to sign up. Please complete the form (fields marked with an asterisk are required) and be sure to select “OCI” in the “Services Requested” section. Please read and accept our policy affirmation in Symplicity. Click on the box below it before you click on the "Submit" button. A username and password will be sent to you via email so that you may continue to access the system.

Once you log in to Symplicity, click on the “OCI” tab on the left side of the page. Then, click on the “Schedule Request” tab, followed by the “Request A Schedule” button. Please complete the "Schedule Request Form" for the appropriate session and click “Submit.”

Requests will be reviewed in the order in which they are received, and you will be contacted accordingly.

If you would prefer for the Center for Professional Development to collect resumes for your firm or organization rather than interviewing on campus, please complete the "Schedule Request Form" (per the instructions above) and select “Resume Collection” rather than “Interview.”

We are excited to have you join us! Feel free to contact Matt Etter, Director of Professional Development & Alumni Relations, if you have any questions.

This panel of partners and recruiting professionals will share their tips and suggestions with a particular focus on preparing for interviews – both OCI and callback interviews – and then navigating those interviews and the post-interview process. 

This event is for 2L law students participating in interviews in late 2020 or early 2021. 

Save the date: Thursday, October 15, 3 pm

Virtual Pre-OCI Mock Interview Program

Students will have the opportunity to practice interviewing skills with volunteer attorneys through the  Center for Professional Development's Virtual Pre-OCI Mock Interview Program. A mock interview is the best way to polish your interview style and refine your strategy for the upcoming on-campus interviews. Due to the ongoing challenges of COVID-19, mock interviews will be conducted virtually using Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or another platform convenient to the attorney.

Practice interviews will last for 20 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of feedback. When possible, CPD will match you with a practitioner in your area of interest. Email Junsen Ohno for a list of volunteers and their availability. Once you've looked over the list, you'll share your top 4 choices with Ms. Ohno, along with a copy of your resume. Ms. Ohno will match you with an attorney who you'll reach out to directly to schedule a date and time to interview.

Time slots are first-come, first-served, and space is limited. Sign up soon, spots are going fast!
