I will defend my PhD in engineering this June and graduate in this August. Recently an IP firm aksed me for an on-site interview. Am I eligible for OPT ? (since I will not do research job). What's the procedure for a fresh PhD'Visa transition to be a technical advisor in a law firm? Thanks a lots!

in theory NO in reality YES USCIS is not strict at all about how your OPT is used at least for now, but I don't think you can extend your OPT.
