There is no fee. For those interested in hiring members of any class, including first-years, we encourage campus visits during the spring term as well, beginning in February. Last year almost one-third of Cornell's fall interviewing activity occurred at the August job fair in New York City. The job fair is a convenient and cost-effective opportunity for employers traveling long distances, eliminating the need to make a second trip to New York in September. For metropolitan-area employers, it minimizes the need to travel.
Employers pay room charges as well.
The August job fair is scheduled for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, August 15-17. The Career Office conducts regional off-campus interview programs in various cities. There are additional opportunities to interview Cornell Law students. We participate in a number of job fairs organized by various law school consortia and legal employers. For those nonvisiting employers who want to receive applications directly from Cornell law students, the Career Office places the employers' correspondence in its resource library and alerts students of the opportunities through a weekly newsletter.
