NCA Network OCI Day

Save the Date!

We are so excited for NCA Network's second annual OCI Day, scheduled for Tuesday, September 15, 2020!

OCI stands for on-campus interview, a brief interview with a firm that lasts no more than 17 minutes. It is the very first step in the recruitment process for 2L summer student positions. OCIs were previously only available to students attending Canadian law schools. Fortunately, NCA students are now eligible to participate and apply for 2L summer student positions at the Toronto offices of participating law firms.

Stay tuned for more details including location, participating firms and application deadlines for Summer 2021 positions (set by the Law Society of Ontario).
