It is then forwarded to the Recruiting Coordinator, who maintains a database of all projects. Each summer associate has a supervising attorney who is a member of the Employment Committee and is responsible for knowing the interests of the summer associate, and assigns projects accordingly. Each summer associate is assigned an associate advisor who is available as a sounding board for projects, questions regarding firm culture, or anything else that may be of interest to the summer associate. We have four departmental presentations, one presentation on the history of the firm, one presentation on the firm as a whole, and sessions regarding state and federal court practice. In addition to these presentations, the summer calendar is filled with practice group meetings, events, and a series of lunch meetings with civic leaders outside the firm to introduce the summer associates to the Greater Cincinnati community.
All firm resources are available to summer associates.
Also available is an information technology staff and an extensive library with three full-time employees. First-year students should contact us immediately following December 1. We are prepared to make offers to all second-year summer associates. We make decisions about offers for first-year summer associates during the summer following their second year. In 2000 we extended 12 offers to the potential 13 candidates.
