Interviewing Remotely For Clerkships

When I started law school, I didn't even know what the word “clerkship” meant. If you are in the same boat and currently reading this, it's okay, I'm here to validate you! The truth is, there isn't enough information readily available about clerkships, unless you're asking the right people the right questions. And for most first-generation lawyers, those connections and questions are generally not at the forefront of our experiences. Most law students do not learn about clerkships or even consider them as a career choice until well into 3L, when they hear of peers securing positions with judges.
