Employer Services
On-Campus Interviewing
Employers can schedule interviews on campus year
round. During the Fall, employers can interview second year students
for summer clerkships and third year students for employment after
graduation. During the Spring, in addition to interviewing second
and third year students, employers can interview first year students
for summer clerkships.
For employers doing on-campus interviews the
Career Services Office will collect resumes of interested, qualified
students and send them to the employer before the visit. The Career
Services Office then schedules interviews based on the employer's
selections and timetable.

Employers can send us a notice and students and alumni can respond directly to the employer. The notice will remain posted for six weeks unless the employer notifies us that the position has been filled or asks us to keep it posted for a longer period of time. Employers wishing to post Job Announcements for Students or Alumni may do so FREE OF CHARGE by linking to Mercer Law School's Symplicity On-line Job Posting Database. A one-time registration will be required (at NO CHARGE).

Nondiscrimination Policy
Mercer Law School has long refrained from discriminating
on the basis for race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age,
handicap or disability, or sexual orientation. The policy of the
Association of American Law Schools, required of all AALS-accredited
law schools, reinforces our longstanding practice. A new AALS requirement,
that we make our placement services available only to employers
who assure us that they are willing to abide by this non-discrimination
policy, was adopted by the Mercer Law Faculty on November 10, 1993.
Accordingly, Mercer Law School does not make its interviewing facilities
or job listing services available to employers who discriminate
in the selection of employees on the basis of race, color, religion,
national origin, sex, age, handicap or disability, or sexual orientation
or any other factor unrelated to an individual's capacity to perform
lawyering tasks. |
