Job Listings

Public sector summer and permanent job opportunities are posted on Symplicity, UNC Law's web-based career management system. Each week, a public service newsletter is sent out that highlights summer and permanent job opportunities.

The 2008 Equal Justice Works Conference and Career Fair provides students and alumni with an excellent opportunity to interview with and learn about national public interest employers. You can download a document put together by the Public Service Programs office.

For those looking for either summer or permanent public interest employment, the largest national public interest job fair will take place on Friday and Saturday, October 10 and 11 , in Washington, DC. A variety of employers participate including non profits, prosecutorial and public defender offices, government agencies and private law firms. Resumes are due to employers by Friday, September 12, 2008 via the Equal Justice Works Symplicity site.
