What is a judicial clerkship?

A judicial clerkship is a post-graduate opportunity to work with an individual judge or an entire court in either state or federal court. A clerkship is usually a temporary, one or two year position.

How does a judicial clerkship further my career goals?

A judicial clerkship provides a superb training ground to improve your writing, research and analytical skills. Whether you are interested in litigation or transactional work, you will learn about substantive law issues that will affect your future clients. You will have an opportunity to witness the decision-making process from a perspective not otherwise available. Additionally, you will be exposed to the intricacies of trial or appellate procedure. Clerkships are prestigious post graduate opportunities, and former clerks typically have a competitive advantage when applying for subsequent jobs with both private and public sector employers.
