2009-10 Clerkship Season
27 comments:
Manion has two.
Anyone know if Judge Wood interviews grads before September? Rumors last year that she followed the 3L hiring plan for grads also.
anyone know who hires off-plan in the 7th circuit?
Bauer (senior) is off-plan in the 7th.
Are any of the judges who haven't already hired interviewing at this time? I haven't heard squat.
Anyone know is Judge Evans is going to be hiring anyone for '09-10?
8:41 -- I would think so, unless you have some insider info suggesting otherwise.
Confirmed with Judge Evans' chambers today that he is hiring, follows the plan, and wants paper apps.
Does anyone have any indication when 7th Circuit judges may be interviewing alumns?
Some of them read them as they come in...
Posner interviewed someone I know this week.
Posner hired one from Harvard.
Is the Harvard hire a 3L or a grad?
3L
you sure you don't mean grad? did this 3L apply to chambers?
You will quickly come to learn that for many judges who claim to follow the hiring plan that only applies to certain 3Ls. Generally, Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and a few other schools have some kind of inside track through professors, clerkship coordinators, and other things and 3Ls with the right connections will get early interviews and hires regardless. Welcome to the legal profession.
don't know if posner professes to follow the plan
Although he is not a very active recruiter, Posner is open about not following the plan.
the plan is a total smokescreen anyways and just advantages those on the coasts. even judges that do pretend to follow it, break it in spirit with winks and nudges
is posner a feeder judge?
Manion is off the hiring plan.
Ripple is interviewing
Posner's HLS hire is definitely a 3L, not a grad. He is reputedly very sharp!
Judge Ripple's OSCAR posting says he follows the plan, so he must be interviewing only grads.
Posner is reputed to be quite intelligent. A very desirable clerkship, that one.
don't think he really feeds though, does he?
Posner has had 12 former clerks go on to clerk for the Supreme Court of the United States in the last 10 years. Not quite Garland or Kozinski, but 12 is definitely enough to qualify as a feeder judge.
The link below is a good source on feeder judges.
