Alumni Career Services

Access to Georgetown Law Job Postings and Web Resources

Jobs postings for Georgetown Law students and alumni are available through Symplicity.  The postings include many listings directed toward experienced attorneys, in both the public and private sectors.  We also have a wealth of information on our web site to help guide you through the job search process and to provide you with information on many of the career paths available to you. 

If you are a graduate of the Law Center, you can obtain access to restricted Law Center web resources by applying for a username and password. Please e-mail Sabrina James with the following information: 

  • Your full name
  • Your date of birth
  • Your telephone number
  • Your year of graduation
  • Your e-mail address

Please note that it may take several business days to verify your alumni status.  We will grant access as soon as possible.

Alumni Counseling

Are you a Georgetown University Law Center graduate who is: 

  • thinking about a job or career change? 
  • planning to move to a different part of the country or abroad? 
  • dealing with a merger or downsizing? 
  • hoping to negotiate a salary increase? 
  • interested in talking to a career counselor? 

We invite all Law Center alumni/ae who anticipate a career change to make an appointment with Marilyn Tucker, Director of Alumni Career Services. Confidential appointments are held in the Office of Career Services for those in the Greater Washington metropolitan area, or by telephone for those outside our area. Marilyn will work with you to define your goals, develop your job search strategy, research potential employers, and find the job you want. An individual career consultation also offers you the opportunity to receive resume and cover letter critiques, find out how to develop interview strategies, and learn networking techniques. 

Contact the Office of Career Services at (202) 662-9300 to schedule an appointment, then fax your resume to Marilyn Tucker at (202) 662-9313 or e-mail it to tucker@law.georgetown.edu.

We also invite you to visit the Job Search Tools and Career Paths sections of our homepage, where you will find everything from general information on cover letters and interviewing to specific information on different career paths (password may be required).
