Legal interns are selected for the OILP programs at the end of March. Selection criteria are based on numerous factors, some of which are program specific. These factors include previous academic or professional experience with the specific areas of focus the individual programs, international experience, language skills (if relevant), and demonstrated ability to work efficiently with minimal supervision and cooperatively with others of different cultural backgrounds.
