This program aims to demystify the judicial clerkship process and empower attendees to pursue this prestigious path with confidence. We are committed to empowering students from diverse backgrounds, including first-generation law students, by equipping them with the necessary information to pursue and obtain a clerkship. The program will include perspectives from previous clerks, judges who have hired clerks, and academic professionals to reveal what judges are looking for in judicial clerks. Additionally, it will provide a day-to-day look into the clerkship experience.
