Interviewing & Recruiting Programs

The Placement Office offers a variety of recruiting programs. In addition to our On-Campus Interviewing Program ("OCI"), we hold Off-Campus Interviewing Programs in Atlanta and Miami. We also coordinate a Resume Referral program for employers who can't travel to campus. Our students also participate in several Job Fairs around the country. To sign up to participate in these programs, please contact the Placement Office at 850.644.4495.

On-Campus Interviewing

The Placement Office uses a Web-based program for all of our OCI scheduling, Resume Referrals and job postings.

You can access our job placement program by clicking on https://law-fsu-csm.symplicity.com/students/.


Only current students can participate in OCI.


The Fall 2008 On-Campus Interviewing Program begins August 11, 2008.

Resume Referral

In addition to OCI, we offer a Resume Referral Program for firms that are not visiting the campus. Students submit resumes for the firm on a particular date, and then our office forwards the resumes to the employers, who then contact students they wish to interview directly.

Only current students can participate in Resume Referral.

Off-Campus Interviewing

Each fall, Florida State Law also hosts off-campus programs in Atlanta and Miami. Programs are similar to our On-Campus Interviewing program, except that interviews are in Atlanta and Miami and the resume deadlines are earlier to allow time for the employers to select students and for the students to make travel arrangements. The Placement Office schedules interviews, but students are responsible for travel plans and expenses.

Only current students can participate in OCI.


Even if you are ONLY participating in the Off-Campus programs, you MUST read the OCI Handbook. All Off-Campus scheduling will be done through https://law-fsu-csm.symplicity.com/students/.
