(2L) REMOTE On-Campus Interviews (OCIs) for Calgary Firms (and 1 Edmonton Firm)
Career Events General
The Career Development Office coordinates interviews between our law students and out-of-province firms during On-Campus Interviews (OCIs) each year in Saskatoon. Once again this year, due to COVID-19 restrictions in place, all OCI interviews will be held remotely, in MDT, where the firms reside.
These interviews are specifically for 2L law students for 2023 summer positions. The legal employers involved are primarily from Calgary but there may be others from various locations such as Edmonton. The remote interviews have been increased from a day of 17 minute interviews, to 20 minute interviews, allowing for 20 interview timeslots to take place for each of the participating firms, should they decide to host a full schedule.
Typically, there is a lunch (2Ls) and an evening reception (for both 1L and 2Ls). Often these firms take 2L student candidates out for a dinner immediately following the networking event. This year only the interview portion of the day will proceed, remotely.
The USask College of Law will be posting positions of those firms who will be participating in the REMOTE OCI process, in the Student Career Portal, with a deadline of Monday, August 29th, at 11:59 pm CST. Additional firms may also have postings in the Student Career Portal, and will be conducting interviews on a day of their choosing.
