Career Services: Your Resource for Career Success

Career Services Launches S.H.A.R.P!

Career Services is launching a new initiative, Short-term Assistance Research Pool ("SHARP").  SHARP is designed to provide solo practioners and small firms a pool of qualified and pre-approved Georgia State College of Law third years and recent graduates to draw from when in need of assistance with short-term projects. 

If you are a 2009 graduate or current third year student and interested in participating in SHARP, please sign into Symplicity to register.  If you are an employer in need of assistance with a project, please click here and complete the form.

A Wealth of Services and Resources

We offer a wealth of services and resources, with individualized career planning/advising serving as the cornerstone of our philosophy. We prepare students to take a comprehensive approach toward the career management process with a view toward imparting skills that can be used during law school and beyond.  

Do You Know What Your Career Options Are?

Throughout the year, we present numerous programs on career options and job search strategies, and we hope you will take advantage of these opportunities to learn about the realities of law practice and other aspects of careers for lawyers. Students who have clearly defined goals and some idea of the reality of different jobs are favored by employers. Graduates who have devoted thought and analysis to their career options find that they are highly satisfied with their positions. It is important to evaluate your goals and motivations before actually entering the job search process.

Explore and Evaluate

We encourage our current students and alumni to explore our site and to learn more about the services, programs, and resources we have assembled to help you develop your current and future career goals with our assistance.

We strive to serve you in evaluating all of your career options, in making informed career choices, and in pursuing employment for summer and post graduation.
