As a result of the state’s current and forecasted economic situation, we are not in a position to extend firm offers via our fall recruitment program for third year law students and judicial clerks. However, the Office does invite third-year law students (those who will graduate from law school in 2010) and judicial clerks of appellate courts whose clerkships will end in the summer of 2010 to apply for “preferred pool status” within our larger attorney hiring pool. We expect that at the end of the process, up to 8 to 10 applicants will attain “preferred pool status”.
From a practical standpoint, this means that between August 1st and November 1st of 2010, divisions with approval to fill vacancies consistent with the interests and experience of those who have preferred status, must consider these particular candidates before they will be allowed to consider candidates from the larger pool.
The deadline to apply this fall has now passed.
Required application material includes: letter of interest, completed/signed application form, current resume, law school transcript and one letter of recommendation/reference.
