Job Post
Submit our Job Post Registration to advertise summer associate, clerkship, or entry-level positions.
Direct Application Portal
If your organization uses its own direct application portal, we encourage you to e-mail the Office of Career Services at careerservices@law.fsu.edu. You may also include this when completing the Job Post Registration.
EVENTS & MARKETING MATERIAL
FSU Law offers a variety of events throughout the year designed to connect employers with our talented student body. From on-campus interview days and networking receptions to career panels and informational sessions, these events provide opportunities to engage with students, share your organization’s work, and build your presence at FSU Law.
We invite employers to participate in our hosted events or to share your hosted events. If your organization is planning an event at which FSU Law students can participate, whether a reception, information session, webinar or office visit, please reach out to our Office of Career Services. We are glad to help promote your event and connect you with interested students.
We also welcome employers to share marketing materials and announcements with our students. Please email our Office and we will distribute your information through our student communications.
RECRUITING POLICIES
We ask that all employers review our Recruiting Policies before registering for any program or engaging with FSU Law students.
Employment Policy for Full-Time Students
FSU Law recommends that students not engage in employment requiring more than 20 hours per week in any semester in which they are enrolled in 12 or more course credit hours. We strongly discourage first-year law students from engaging in employment during fall and spring semesters, so they focus on academics and becoming part of the law school community.
