NBLSA Job Fairs

Through its regional job fairs, the National Black Law Students Association provides its members with access to career opportunities. Although we face an uncertain economic climate, our participating employers remain committed to hiring diverse candidates.

In order to attend a regional job fair, dues-paying NBLSA members must first register on Symplicity, NBLSA's online job bank and web-based recruiting system. Once your membership is confirmed, you'll have access to all NBLSA job fairs.

Please note that each job fair has its own student bidding period. Job fairs will not display on
Symplicity until the applicable bidding period has commenced. In June 2010 we'll provide further information regarding each of the regional fairs, including the appropriate contact(s) and applicable student bidding period.
