Why Law Students Can’t Afford to Miss the NDAA 2025 Job Fair

NDAA’s 2025 Law School Series

If you’re in law school, you’ve likely heard the question a hundred times: “What kind of lawyer do you want to be?” For those drawn to the challenge of courtroom advocacy, the pursuit of justice, and the opportunity to serve their communities, the NDAA 2025 Job Fair is an event you can’t miss.

Taking place on February 1–2, 2025, in Washington, D.C., this isn’t your typical job fair. It’s a career-defining opportunity for aspiring prosecutors to connect with prosecuting agencies from across the country, learn directly from industry leaders, and take the first step toward a meaningful career.

Here’s why every law student serious about prosecution should clear their calendar and pack their bags for Washington, D.C.:

1. Connect with Decision-Makers in Prosecution

At the NDAA 2025 Job Fair, you won’t just be dropping resumes into a black hole or exchanging vague pleasantries. You’ll have direct, face-to-face conversations with hiring managers and recruiters from prosecution offices across the nation.

This is your chance to ask questions, showcase your skills, and leave a lasting impression. Whether you’re looking for an internship, an entry-level position, or insights into what a career in prosecution entails, this event puts you in the room with the people who can make it happen.

2. Build a Network That Will Launch Your Career

Networking is everything in the legal profession, and the NDAA Job Fair offers an unparalleled opportunity to expand your connections. From prosecutors and judges to fellow law students and recent graduates, you’ll meet people who can offer guidance, mentorship, and even job leads.

Kick off the weekend at the Opening Night Reception on Sat., Feb 1, where you can mingle in a more relaxed setting. Bring your business cards, your best conversation starters, and your enthusiasm for prosecution. These connections could shape your career in ways you can’t yet imagine.

3. Learn from Industry Leaders

One of the highlights of the job fair is its educational sessions and workshops. These aren’t just lectures — they’re practical, hands-on opportunities to learn from experienced prosecutors who’ve been in your shoes.

Whether it’s perfecting your resume, mastering interview techniques, or gaining insights into the realities of prosecution work, these sessions are designed to prepare you for the next steps in your career. Think of them as mini-masterclasses in becoming the kind of candidate every prosecution office wants to hire.

4. Get the Inside Track on Job Opportunities

The legal job market is competitive, especially in specialized fields like prosecution. At the NDAA 2025 Job Fair, you’ll have access to insider information about open positions, hiring timelines, and what specific agencies are looking for in candidates.

This kind of knowledge gives you an edge over other applicants. Instead of applying blindly, you’ll know exactly how to tailor your application materials and approach to stand out.

5. Experience a Weekend of Professional Growth

This isn’t just about finding a job — it’s about setting the foundation for a fulfilling career. The NDAA 2025 Job Fair is designed to help you grow as a professional, whether you’re practicing your networking skills, refining your resume, or building confidence in interviews.

You’ll leave the event not just with leads on potential jobs but also with a clearer sense of what it takes to succeed in prosecution and a renewed sense of purpose for your legal journey.
