Judicial Clerkships

As with any interview, preparation and research about the judge, his or her opinions, background, current and former clerks and reputation are essential. Thank you notes should follow within 24 hours of the interview. If you decide you would not accept a clerkship offer after interviewing with the judge, ask, as soon as possible, to be removed from consideration.

In terms of what you should be asking, it's helpful to consult the Clerkships page of this site.
