Information on participating employers is now available on the PSRP instance of Symplicity. (Please note: it is not the same url as the Symplicity website that houses other GU Law recruiting programs.)
The Public Sector Recruiting Program is a day-long job fair for Georgetown and George Washington law students to interview for summer 2013 internships and a limited number of permanent positions with non-profit organizations, government agencies and public interest law firms. Approximately 200 employers participated in 2012.
The Program consists of scheduled interviews, table talk (informal information exchange) and a resume collection option for employers that cannot interview at GW. The program is “pre-screened,” which means that employers pre-select the students they wish to interview.
Interviews and Table Talk will take place on Saturday, February 2, 2013 at the GWU Marvin Center.
Students are required to upload employer specific cover letters (in addition to resumes). Public sector employers prefer cover letters as part of students’ applications.
The deadline to upload application materials for the Interview Option is 12:00 pm on Monday, January 7, 2013.
Pleae note: the new deadline to upload application materials for the Resume Collection Option is 5:00 pm on Wednesday, January 9, 2013.
Please read through the PSRP Instruction Manual for additional instructions and important dates/deadlines.
