Students Can Now Self-Report Offers and Interviews in Flo Forward Across All Employer Types
- 4 mins
The missing piece of outcomes data, finally filled in.
One of the most persistent gaps in law school career services has been the activity that happens off-platform: the offer a student got through a direct application, the interview they landed by reaching out directly. Flo is the fastest shipping company in the legal talent industry, and this one had been on our list for a while for good reason.
The problem
Career services teams have always known that what they see in their traditional career services platform is only part of the picture. A student might be managing three active processes, but if two of them started outside a school hosted interview program, those interviews and offers were invisible. Schools were making advising decisions and reporting outcomes with incomplete data, and there was no easy way for students to fill in the gaps.
Students, for their part, had no single place to track everything. They were jumping between the platform and their own spreadsheets or notes to keep track of where they stood. The lack of a unified view made it harder to stay organized and made it easy for things to slip.
What we shipped
Students can now manually add applications, offers, and interviews across any type of employer directly from the My Applications tab in Flo Forward. There are two new workflows:
- Manually add an application: A modal lets students record any offer or job activity that did not originate in Flo Forward. These entries appear alongside system-tracked applications on the My Applications tab, and students can also add them directly from the Forward dashboard.
- Manually add an interview: A separate modal captures interviews that happened outside the platform. Manual interviews appear on the student dashboard next to interviews the system tracks automatically.
Students can edit or delete any manual entry from an overflow menu on each row of the applications list. They can also pull up application details for any record, manual or automatic, from the same menu.


When a student opts in to share their self-reported data, that activity flows through to the school side automatically. Career services teams see the full picture without any extra steps on their end.

Why it matters
For career services teams, this closes the most common gap in outcomes reporting. Now when students share their self-reported activity, schools get data that reflects what is actually happening in each student's search, not just what happened to run through a school-hosted interview program. That makes reporting more accurate, advising conversations more informed, and targeted student outreach more efficient.
For law students, Flo Forward now becomes a genuine home base for the entire job search, not just BigLaw. Having everything in one place reduces the cognitive load of tracking multiple active processes and makes it less likely that something falls through the cracks.
Outcomes data is only as good as the activity it reflects, and now Flo Forward reflects the full picture. If there are other parts of the student search that you’re still struggling to see, keep telling us. That is exactly the kind of gap we want to close next.
