The University of Virginia School of Law has one of the most successful Career Services programs in American legal education. Virginia enjoys a reputation for producing well-trained, effective lawyers, and private- and public-sector employers of the first rank heavily recruit students each year. Virginia graduates typically begin their careers with prestigious employers from across the country, including large and small law firms, government agencies, and public interest organizations.

Most student jobs are obtained with the active assistance of the Office of Career Services, its staff, and CASE, the Law School's innovative online job search system.

Fall 2007 Recruiting

• More than 950 public- and private-sector law offices from 42 states, the District of Columbia, and six foreign countries

• More than 9,000 interviews with 2Ls and 3Ls; 8,614 with 2Ls alone

• 2Ls averaged more than 21 interviews

Supporting Alumni and Building Networks

As members of the Law Career Network, more than 1,300 alumni have volunteered to help graduates find jobs. In addition, the Career Services Office maintains a password-protected online list of job opportunities for alumni looking to change positions.

• Virginia is third among national law schools in the number of law firm chairpersons and managing partners, according to a 2004 survey of 850 U.S. law firms.
