Twin Cities Diversity in Practice (TCDIP) is a nonprofit association of leading Twin Cities legal employers with a single mission: to attract, recruit, advance, and retain attorneys of color in and around the Twin Cities. For over 15 years, TCDIP has sponsored the Minnesota Minority Recruitment Conference (MMRC) designed to connect legal employers in the Twin Cities metro area with diverse 2L and 3L student candidates from around the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our next Minnesota Minority Recruitment Conference is\u00a0August 5, 2022.<\/strong> MMRC is where Twin Cities legal employers interview students of color for summer associate or post-graduation employment. The main event is a full day of formal interviews. All employers are invited to participate, including small, medium, and large firms; corporate law departments; and public interest, nonprofit, and government entities. Employers are not required to be a member of TCDIP to participate in MMRC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n TCDIP promotes MMRC to law schools and student affinity groups across the country. Students and employers are matched through a pre-selection process. If you have any additional questions, please contact us.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The conference organizers are committed to a policy against discrimination in employment based upon age, sex, race, religious belief, ability, veteran status, sexual orientation, or national origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to know what working attorneys and recruiting professionals look for in a resume?
