Covington & Burling LLP

LCLD 1L Scholar Program: We participate in the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) 1L Scholars Program, a program designed to strengthen the diversity of the legal pipeline by providing 1L summer association positions to a diverse pool of talented first- year law students. The LCLD Scholars program provides 1L students with a paid summer associate position and the opportunity to attend the LCLD Summit with LCLD scholars from around the country.
Traditional 2L Summer Program: Each recruiting season, the firm conducts interviews with law students on many law school campuses, and also routinely considers applications from exceptional students attending schools at which we do not conduct campus interviews.
Sponsors for Educational Opportunity: We participate in the Sponsors for Educational Opportunity (SEO) Career program, which is the nation's premiere summer internship program for talented underrepresented students.
Law in Tech Diversity Collaborative: This is a ten-week program open to first-year law students, split with 5 weeks at the in-house legal department of a tech company within the LiTD Collaborative, learning about one or more substantive areas of in-house practice and getting exposure to meaningful work; and 5-6 weeks as a summer associate with a law firm partnering with that tech company.
