The Career Development and Alumni Services office understands that looking for a job can be stressful, particularly when the law student or graduate is seeking a job in an area outside the greater Washington metropolitan area. Reciprocity is one method in the job search process.
Reciprocity is a mutual exchange of privileges.
Law schools use reciprocity to provide reasonable access to their career resources for law students and graduates from other law schools who agree to provide similar access and services. It is important to remember, however, that reciprocity is only one method in the job search process. It is important to understand that every law school has its own reciprocity requirements. Students and alumni should check with their own law school's career services office regarding the reciprocity policies of other schools. Accordingly, requests should be made to only one of these schools.
