Judicial Clerkships
(Post Graduate Positions)
A judicial clerkship provides direct insight into the judicial process and is a valuable and enriching experience. A law clerk gains practical experience by attending judicial proceedings, performing legal research and providing other assistance to the judge. Law clerks are also exposed to the methods and customs of practitioners, and learn the level of professional behavior expected of lawyers. Many former law clerks find that the prestige and experience associated with service as a federal judicial law clerk broadens their future employment opportunities.
For more information, please review the Federal Judicial Clerkship Guide 2008 (PDF) which provides additional information on such positions, upcoming summer 2008 deadlines, and an overview of application and interview procedures.
