Welcome to Flo Forward! Our shiny new candidate dashboard where you can apply to jobs, browse firm profiles, register for events, view all of your past, present, and future events that take place on Flo Recruit, and view past job applications. This guide will walk you through navigating Forward from beginning to end. Let's jump in!
Creating your profile:
Navigate to this link to create your Forward profile. You will first need to verify your email address:
We highly recommend using the email address you typically use to apply to jobs and register for events, but you can have more than one email address associated with your profile as needed.
After verifying, you will fill out your personal information in a few different steps:
In step 2, you will enter your school information. Note that at this time, our event board is only available to 1L students that are listed as 1Ls on their profile. For our job board, you will only be able to see jobs that reflect your listed class year as well. For rising 2Ls, we recommend listing yourself as a 1L.
You will also get the chance to select your preferred office locations and practice areas. Note that you can change this later! This will help us show you the positions you're best fit for:
Once you've completed setup, you'll get your first look at your new dashboard!

Our jobs dashboard is your one-stop-ship for getting your next summer associate position. We post new jobs daily, so be sure to check back often for more openings.
Notice the lefthand menu. This will allow you to narrow down the jobs you see by preference. You can also search and sort the options for even easier use.
For jobs that allow you to apply on the firm's website, navigating back to Forward will prompt you to answer whether or not you applied to the job:
Make sure to mark this accurately! This will allow the job to show on your dashboard if you did apply.
Settings
Under your account settings, you'll have the option to change any information that you entered when creating your account, other than your primary email address. If you need to link your account with another email, select "Emails" from the lefthand menu:
Here, you can enter a secondary email address. Once you add a second one, verify it!
