Interviewing Programs

The University of Minnesota Law School Career Center hosts both national on-campus and off-campus interviewing programs, and participates in diversity, public interest, and specialized recruiting programs across the country to give students increased access to a broad range of employers.

On-Campus Interviews Program

The University of Minnesota Law School's On-Campus Interview program (OCI) is the largest recruiting event of the year. The majority of employers who participate in our OCI program operate in the private sector and are primarily interviewing rising 2Ls for summer positions, but we welcome any legal employer to participate.

We will host a July Interview Program from July 14-16.  The Employer registration deadline is June 24.  We will host an August Interview Program from August 16 - 18.  Registration for both programs will take place on Gold Standard.  Please email Rob Borchardt at [email protected] with any questions.

Minnesota Law will hold several networking events in the fall.  Dates for fall 2026 will be announced soon.  The Career Center's Employer Engagment Team will begin scheduling employer visits by June 1.

Resume Collections

If you are not able to conduct fall interviews on- or off-campus, we welcome you to participate through our resume collection process. Register via Gold Standard We will list you as a recruiting employer, notify our students about your job, collect resumes from interested students, and send those resumes directly to your hiring contact.

Diversity Fairs

Several programs bring our students together with employers who have a specific interest in hiring students from a diverse background. The programs are held in a variety of locations around the country throughout the year.

Public Interest Fairs

Students interested in pursuing public interest careers are invited to interview across the country with a variety of employers at any of the special interview programs for public interest employers.
