2L Job Statistics, Summer 2012

Over the summer of 2012, our 2L students had 438 jobs in 87 cities in the United States and abroad. Sixty-six percent of our 2Ls chose employment with a law firm, and sixteen percent chose government service, including with such federal agencies as the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The employment prospects for our students in Summer 2012 were much improved over Summer 2011, and all current signs indicate Summer 2013 will be as strong or stronger than 2012 .
