Information For Alumni

Welcome to the alumni career services section of the Center for Career and Professional Development website!  We hope that you will find it easy to use and will view it as a valuable resource in your career, whether you are seeking a change of position or general career advice.

General Services

Alumni career needs, whether for new graduates or experienced attorneys differ from those of current students.  Our goal - through individual counseling sessions, alumni-specific career programming, employer and search firm outreach, continuous research regarding various career resources, and the ongoing development of this website - is to address these needs.  We  have successfully assisted hundreds of alumni with career transitions as well as general career goals and counseling.  We maintain lists of legal recruiters and other tools for job searching in NY and other jurisdictions; please contact the CCPD at 914-422-4217 or careers@law.pace.edu for further information.

Get Involved

In addition to working with on your professional goals, we would also would be delighted to have you partner with us as part of our Mentor Program. As a participant in this program, you have the opportunity to share your expertise, perspective and advice with current students, who are in the process of trying to determine where they want to take their careers. You can volunteer your time in several ways: as a mentor, mock interviewer, program panelist, informational interviewer, and/or as a part of contact at your employer. 

Returning to Work?

In response to increasing numbers of Pace alumni and other attorneys who have taken a break from practice and who are now interested in returning, or entering practice for the first time, Pace Law School created New Directions for Attorneys.  The Program includes substantive law practice skills, including an externship. For further information on this program, please visit www.law.pace.edu/newdirections.
