Interview Programs
Duke Law students have been charting their employment course and laying the foundation for their job search since the first day of law school.
Our students are counseled closely to define their goals and to think about their skills, knowledge, and passions and how they can fit into a fulfilling professional life. The Career and Professional Development Center offers several opportunities for employers to engage Duke Law students in their recruitment efforts.
OCI Segment I
OCI Segment I is scheduled by a 100% lottery process, with interviews hosted virtually via Flo Recruit. Our 2023 program will take place on August 1-4, with registration opening on February 20, 2023.

OCI Segment II is scheduled via employer preselect and interviews take place after fall classes resume. There is no fee to participate. Employers may conduct interviews virtually via Flo Recruit or in-person at the Law School. Our 2023 program will take place August 23 – September 22, with registration opening on February 20, 2023.
