Information for Reciprocity Applicants

Click to expand this entry.

The Career Services Office at Georgia State University College of Law maintains the following reciprocity policy:

Reciprocal services are available on a one-to-one basis to students and graduates of other ABA-accredited/NALP member law schools who permit Georgia State University students and graduates use of their services. Reciprocity will only be granted to one law school in the state of Georgia.

Requests for reciprocity must be made in writing by a Career Services official two weeks prior to any visit. Requests must include contact information for the student/graduate, including address, and whether requesting in-office or online job posting access. The student/graduate should wait for a copy of our written response before contacting this office. No walk-ins or phone requests will be considered.

Reciprocity is granted for a period of three months and will expire on the date listed in the letter granting reciprocity. If a student is requesting online access their reciprocity will start the day the payment is received. A request for renewal will be treated as a new request.

Reciprocity is not available during fall on-campus recruitment, Aug. 1 through Nov. 1.

Reciprocity services include in office access to employment listings and review of materials in the Career Services Resource Center or the option to access our job postings online for a nominal fee of $25.00. Services do not include participation in on-campus interviews, job fairs, employer mailings, resume referral or counseling. All students/graduates granted reciprocity must sign in at the reception desk in the career services office to have in office access.

Applicants granted reciprocity must state in cover letters to employers that the job listings were provided by Georgia State University College of Law Career Services Office through a reciprocal agreement with their school. Failure to comply will result in revocation of reciprocity privileges.

Subscription to the monthly E-Graduate Job Bulletin is available to graduates of other law schools at any time. The cost is $30.00 for a six month subscription.

Fees for online job posting access or job bulletin subscriptions must be paid by check, made payable to Georgia State University College of Law, Career Services Office, P.O. Box 4037, Atlanta, GA 30302-4037.

 


What is Symplicity?

Symplicity is a communication and event management tool used by many law schools to provide information about special programs and job listings, and to easily manage appointment scheduling and RSVPs.

The information that you provide in Symplicity is used to tailor our email communications to you, based on your interests and experience. We encourage all students to sign-up, and to keep profiles up-to-date.

(Note: Not sure what practice areas to focus on? Start by selecting every area of interest, and update your profile as you develop a more concrete plan.)
