The Alumni in Residence (AIR) program connects current HLS students with accomplished HLS alumni for one-on-one career mentoring. In an office hours model, students can sign up for a 20-minute Zoom appointment with visiting alumni to ask specific career questions or to simply solicit general advice from someone who has been through similar experiences as a law school student. Find a match with your career interests or take advantage of this chance to explore a new practice area or job sector.

Students must reserve appointments in advance, and space is limited. Review the calendar below for upcoming AIR events and more information on visiting alumni.

To sign up for an appointment, follow the “Click to Register” links below.
