Career Services 

The Office of Career and Professional Development at UC Hastings provides a wide variety of programs including panels, mock interviews, brown bags, workshops, and career fairs. The office also offers a well-stocked career library as well as office computers dedicated to student use and an online job database for students, alumni, and potential employers.

With a career counselor specifically assigned to assist them, our LLM students benefit from personalized assistance as well as special workshops and information sessions. Hastings is a consortium member of the West Coast LLM Job Fair, so our LLM students have opportunities to interview with international firms prior to graduation.
