Career Advising and Resources

Public Interest Career Advising

The Public Interest Center provides individual career counseling to JD and JD joint degree students and alumni through three public interest advisers. The advisers are available for strategy meetings, job searches, resume and cover letter review, and mock interviews. 

Students and alumni with last names that start with A-H are assigned to work with Susan Curry (while Emily Powers is on leave).

Students and alumni with last names that start with I-P are assigned to work with Sheila Simhan.

Students and alumni with last names that start with Q-Z are assigned to work with Leah Gould.
