An LL.M. is an ideal complement to your studies or after a clerkship. To support the hiring of LL.M. graduates, Gibson Dunn participates in the International Student Interview Program (ISIP).
What is the ISIP?
The ISIP is a large LL.M. Recruiting Program in the US hosted by the New York University and the Columbia University, in cooperation with a multitude of top Law Schools.
The Programme allows employers from all around the world to advertise opportunities to LL.M. students.
The ISIP 2024 will take place virtually in late January 2024, usually on the last Friday and Saturday of the month.
In September Gibson Dunn will organize a virtual careers event where you can hear more about our practices, teams and opportunities.
