Beginning on March 3 and each following Wednesday at 9 a.m., Career Development and Advancement will host eight students and one attorney over zoom for small group networking over coffee, or a morning beverage of choice. The series, titled 9@9, is designed to create more intimate networking and learning sessions for students. Each session will be about 40 minutes: 30 minutes to hear from the Attorney and then about 10 minutes for questions.

This event is envisioned to be a more informal setting to interact with UGA Law alumni.

The deadline to apply for pre-selected job interviews at the Georgia Public Sector Career Fair is 1/21/20. Annually, 70+ public interest and government employers participate.

Come to this session to find out how to submit applications, register and prepare.

RSVP for the information session in Symplicity or by email to profdev@uga.edu.

Her firm specializes in immigration law, family law, and wills/estates. Ms. Phan will share her story of how she came to start up and run her own firm.
