CISSP Law Student Looking for Opportunities

smashb7 — Thu, 03 Jul 2025 14:49:01 GMT

Hello everyone, I have just finished my 1L year at WashU and I am looking for internship opportunities for the fall, spring, and next year's summer. In addition to the CISSP, I have the CIPP/US, CIPM, and FIP designations from IAPP. I am looking for opportunities to apply my IT experience in a GRC or consulting setting, and hope to speak with anyone who has advice or opportunities. Thanks!

@smashb7 I would recommend you network with local infosec groups. Look for local chapters of ISSA, ISACA, ISC2, IAPP, and Infragard. Should be a local BSides Conference around there as well.
