OCP assists through the job search process, helps create a personalized job search strategy, reviews job related documents, prepares our students with mock interviews, and provides information throughout each phase of the job search. We advise our community on their professional development, suggest legal specialties to explore depending on an individual's interests, and generally act as a sounding board and resource for career exploration and options.
