10Resources to help with Judicial Clerkship Applications and Interview Preparation

We've blogged about this before, but it's worth mentioning again since Early Interview Week and judicial clerkship hiring season is just around the corner.

The Library's recently updated Job Searching Research Guide covers everything from "how-to interview" to biographical resources for investigating potential employers of all types.

A frequently-used resource listed in our guide is the Leadership Library database, which includes the Judicial Yellow Book. Search or browse for judges' contact information, service dates and staff. There are also photos and biographical information for selected courts, as well as email addresses. The Judicial Yellow Book is one of the most convenient and up-to-date sources of judicial phone numbers, addresses and contact information.

Georgetown Law Students should consult the Law Center's Office of Career Services site to access job search tools, interview tips, and a specific section highlighting Early Interview Week 2009. This includes a list of important dates to remember. Students pursuing opportunities in the public interest community should review information from our Office of Public Interest and Community Service (OPICS).

Georgetown students may contact the Reference Desk with questions about how to use our databases or other online resources by contacting the reference desks in the Williams or Wolff libraries or via LiveHelp from the Library's website.
