OCI Application & Registration Seminar

Before the on-campus interview (aka, OCI), there's the OCI application and registration process. It's not hard, but it can be confusing, especially as most of you haven't previously applied to a legal employer or used the platforms involved. That's where we come in.

This seminar will go through the ins and outs of applying directly to OCI employers for 2022 2L Summer positions, and registering those applications on ACE. We'll address the most common FAQs we receive on using viLawPortal to apply to OCI employers, as well as the many nuances in application documents. We'll also walk you through what you'll need to do on ACE.

There will be plenty of time for questions from students.
