Career Services
A major goal of the Office of Career Services (OCS) is to provide a mutually beneficial environment where students and employers establish successful relationships. To match an employer’s needs with qualified applicants, the Office of Career Services takes great care in assessing the individual candidate’s skills, background, and career plans.
Additionally, the OCS develops comprehensive information on the special needs of employers participating in the program and attempts to align those needs with the expectations of students and alumni. Using the up to date legal recruiting resources, Howard’s OCS is one of the most recruited programs in the country.
Individuals seeking additional information or assistance can contact the Office of Career Services. A staff member will be available to provide further details and respond to specific inquiries.
The Office of Career Services is dedicated to providing students and graduates with the foundation necessary for successful career development and advancement. Our mission is achieved through workshops and seminars, career counseling, recruitment programs, resources, and networking opportunities.
Our aim is to help prepare our students in their pursuit of legal careers and in their roles as future leaders in America and the global community in a wide variety of settings, including private law firms, public interest organizations, corporations, businesses, government agencies, judicial clerkships, and non-traditional careers.
