Program Details

During the Overseas-Trained LL.M. Interview Program, LL.M. students have the opportunity to interview for permanent and training postgraduate positions with U.S. and foreign law firms. The program consists of an October Virtual Interview Program and Resume Collections (November, January, March, April).
