Request a schedule at- Interview Date: As noted above, returning VIP employers will be automatically assigned the next consecutive day of the week from our 2021 interview program. For example, employers assigned Tuesday in 2021, will be assigned Wednesday this year, employers assigned Friday in 2021, will be assigned Monday. New employers will be assigned based on availability.
- Application Materials and Transcripts: In order to streamline the interview process in a virtual setting, we will be instructing students to upload all application materials requested by each employer into Symplicity at the time of bidding. As such, please be sure to include any materials you would like for viewing as part of the screening interview process in your schedule request. You will be able to download a student’s resume and all other requested materials from Symplicity as part of a student’s interview packet after you receive your interview schedule(s) in July. If certain materials are required only for callback interviews, we kindly ask that you request those materials directly from the student at the time a callback invitation is extended. Student materials will not be upload into Flo Recruit for screening interviews.
STEP 3 YLS Employer Recruiting Policies by engaging with a wide swath of employers and our student community to evaluate our policies in light of the legal hiring market. In particular, we engage each year with Yale Law School’s elected Student Representatives about whether YLS should maintain our “No Pre-VIP Interviewing Policy” which states that law firm employer offices participating in VIP shall not conduct initial or callback interviews of second-year students prior to their assigned VIP date (with a few exceptions). After careful consideration, our Student Representatives have reaffirmed our “No Pre-VIP Interviewing Policy” for VIP 2022. When requesting a schedule, you will be required to confirm your compliance with these policies.
Review YLS Employer Recruiting Policies Every year we conduct a rigorous review of our2022 Winter Interview Program (WIP)
We are planning to hold The Winter Interview Program (WIP) for first-year students (some second- and third-year students also interview at this time), January 25-28, 2022. This program will be open to private sector and public interest employers. We will distribute registration information at the end of October.
If you are unable to come to campus but would like to receive resumes from Yale Law students you may post your position opening through our online job posting system powered by Symplicity.
