Massachusetts School of Law has an active career services office that is there to help students gain legal experience while they are in school and to help students obtain a legal job after school.

The Director of Career Services is Rohit Bhasin. He is available to review resumes, discuss personal job searches, and set up mock interviews. Feel free to stop by his office any time to set up an appointment.

Summary of Services:

The career services office is located next to the Registrars office. Outside the office on the wall is a bulletin board that is kept current with part time and full time PAID legal internships. You can also find information about clerkships, CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate programs), and seminar information on specific practice areas.

Inside the office is another bulletin board that posts articles of interest regarding job searching, career web sites, and employment outlook.

The office also stacks volumes of information about firms, government agencies, and companies that have posted job offerings with MSLAW in the past.

This is a great resource to help "hone" a job search. In addition, the career services office is available to assist students in writing resumes and cover letters and to help sharpen your interview skills.

Most internship opportunities are directed towards second and third year law students. However, there are some law firms that will take first year student as an intern to handle duties such as client intake, maintaining client files and other general office duties. However, there are also general job postings for the benefit of first year law students who do not yet have the research experience that is generally required for full legal internships.
