Whether you're considering applying to law school, a current California Western student, one of our distinguished alumni, or an employer seeking to hire practice-ready graduates, the Career and Professional Development Office (CPDO) is always here to help.

What Students, Alumni, and Employers are Saying

"The CPDO helped me identify potential jobs and narrow them down based on our discussions. They took the time to listen, and through our discussions, they were able to get an idea of who I am and what jobs would be a good fit for me. They helped me every step of the way. I was offered the IRS Chief Counsel Honors Program position. There’s no doubt that I would’ve been able to accomplish this without the support from CPDO!"– Chae Kim, 3L

"Thank you for all your help. I've always thought the CPDO is the single most valuable resource at CWSL. From helping me obtain numerous positions during law school including the internship that ultimately connected Hilary and I, to supporting our business through ALI when we were getting off the ground, to now quickly connecting us with strong applicants when we're hiring. I've always felt that your office is really willing to go above and beyond to support students and graduates."– Paul Alaimo ‘14 and Hilary Boyer ‘09 - Alaimo & Boyer APC

We have been consistently impressed with our law clerks from California Western. Their work product is on par with young associates, which makes them a profitable asset to our firm and our clients.” – Jessica R. Gross ’17, Sheppard Mullin
