Summer Interview Program: Session I

The Summer Interview Program: Session I (formerly, “OCI”) welcomes employers to recruit rising 2Ls, 3Ls, domestic and foreign-trained LL.M.s, and recent graduates (up to one year after graduation) for summer clerkships or postgraduate positions.

Prior to bidding, we encourage you to submit your resume and cover letter for review by a career counselor by sending your materials in MS Word format on or before June 16, 2025 to cso-resumes@law.utexas.edu.

If you have any questions, please contact Rachel Quiroz at 512-232-1161 or rquiroz@law.utexas.edu.

If you choose to participate in the Summer Interview Program: Session I, it is important to keep in mind that this program is just one avenue for conducting your job search.

Students interested in applying for 2L summer clerkships with Big Law firms should not rely solely on this or any interview program as their primary avenue for applications. We encourage you to apply to our interview programs and also apply directly to large law firms through their online application portals. We anticipate most large law firm employers will begin the recruiting process by the end of the spring semester.

Please visit the Summer Interview Program: Session I Canvas webpage for detailed information about the program, how to apply, resources for researching employers, and more. Scheduled interviews for this program will be awarded by 100% employer selection.
