Book Description

August 1, 2002 0314143963 978-0314143969 Reprint
'To clerk or not to clerk?'

Although the answer should be 'clerk', the reality is that most students won't apply for a clerkship. The most common reason why students don't apply is a lack of knowledge about what it takes to get a clerkship or how beneficial it will be to their careers.

With The Guide to Judicial Clerkships Debra M. Strauss demystifies the clerkship process. Drawing from the experiences of clerks and judges, she explains all aspects of clerkships — what clerkships are, what kind of work clerks do, why you should apply, how to find and apply for the type of clerkship that would be right for you, how to give a strong interview, and why clerkships give you stellar credentials that prospective employers will actively seek out.

The Guide to Judicial Clerkships contains everything that you need to make the right choice — clerk!

About the Author

Debra M. Strauss, Esq. is the national expert in the area of judicial clerkships. A graduate of Yale Law School, she has herself served two clerkships, first directly after law school and then years later as a Permanent Law Clerk. In addition, after practicing at a commercial litigation firm, Ms. Strauss returned to Yale Law School as Director of Judicial Clerkship Counseling and Programs. She established the judicial clerkship program there, which achieved national prominence and resulted in a record number of Yale students obtaining clerkships. Since then, she has served as Project Director of the National Judicial Clerkship Study, sponsored by the National Association for Law Placement (NALP) and the American Bar Association (ABA), and authored the report on the 2000 National Judicial Clerkship Study.
