National Law Firms Restart Hiring, Ksobiech Says in Wall Street Journal

Tom Ksobiech, assistant dean for career services, said law firms have reached out to the Law School for hiring.

“There are a couple of prominent national firms that have contacted us about 3Ls because they did not have summer associate coverage,” he told The Wall Street Journal.

Summer classes are increasing at large firms in Atlanta, New Orleans, Nashville and Birmingham, he said. For more, read “Big Law Firms Resume Hiring.”
