Assignments & Mentoring
The summer associate program’s centerpiece is our unique assignment system. Unlike other firms, we carefully match assignments with each summer associate’s stated interests, thereby offering summer associates a real opportunity to test their interests through exposure to the firm’s work in their preferred areas. Moreover, the assignment system draws upon the informal and flexible nature of our practice groups, enabling summer associates to explore a variety of substantive assignments in diverse practice groups.
All summer associates are assigned both a senior and a junior mentor who facilitate their introduction to the firm, advise on work assignments, and provide insight into life at Covington. We pride ourselves on providing summer associates with constructive feedback on their work throughout the summer. We also help summer associates develop their writing, research, and advocacy skills as the summer progresses.
