The Government and Public Interest Table Talk (GPITT)
Friday, February 14, 2014 | 12:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m.
Krost Hall
The Government and Public Interest Table Talk (GPITT) gives students the opportunity to meet with public interest employers and discuss internship opportunities for the upcoming summer or academic year. During the event, local non-profit organizations and government agencies come to campus and set up booths in the Law Center Commons and share information on their organization and its hiring needs. Remember to dress professionally and bring copies of your resume! Applicants should look through the CDO's GPITT employer list (you can find it here) as some employers want applications submitted before the event.
