Job Announcements

The Career Services Office maintains a posting of current positions for students and alumni. Employers' notices are 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. By posting notices with the Career Services Office, employers agree to abide by the Law School's non-discrimination policy when they submit a position for posting.

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 FOR EMPLOYERS. New employers will be required to register (free of charge). Employers with additional questions may contact: Terry McDuffie, Email: mcduffie_tm@law.mercer.edu.

Employers may also link to a printable Job Posting Form. Print the Form and fax the completed Form to (478) 301-2287. To have a form faxed to you, please call Terry McDuffie at (478) 301-2615.

Prospective Students

Prospective Students seeking information beyond what is listed on this website link may contact the Career Services Office at (478) 301-2615.

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.
