Let's Partner for Success

The Law School's Career Development Office can help you identify and pursue job opportunities in a range of practice settings. Here’s how we can work together:

Alumni Referral Program

Employers with open positions regularly contact CDO seeking qualified St. John's Law graduates. We created the Alumni Referral Program to expedite the hiring process and streamline how we share employment information with alumni. As a Program participant, you’ll receive updates about employment opportunities, events, and initiatives through our bi-weekly newsletter and other communications. CDO can also connect you directly with employers based on your professional interests and qualifications. 

Online Job Postings 

Alumni can view job postings on CDO's password-protected website, Symplicity. We source listings from law firms, corporations, public interest organizations, government agencies, and other employers with open positions. Alumni interested in public service work can use PSJD, an online repository for public sector job listings and career-building tools. 

Career Development Office Reciprocity

While CDO is here to help, alumni can also access the services of career development offices at other law schools. If you're interested in pursuing opportunities outside the New York Metropolitan area and want to obtain reciprocity within our law school network, please email us at [email protected].
