Have you looked through Symplicity and noticed several Judicial Events? The Career Center will be hosting multiple Judicial Conversations throughout the Fall Semester. These events are small group discussions with judges from across the country who will be discussing their role in the judiciary as well as their path to the bench. From State courts to Bankruptcy to Federal District Courts, the conversations will vary and will provide more clarity into what clerking for a judge would entail.

Every year students gain clerkships through these conversations, whether it be directly with the visiting Judge or with someone else in their district or level. These conversations are a unique opportunity to hear exactly what judges are looking for in applications and in their future clerks. It will also help you work through the nerves of speaking with a judge in an interview.

Join the kick-off event on September 12, 2023 at 12 pm with Judge Karen Specie, a US Bankruptcy Court Judge for the Northern District of Florida. Many of these events will be virtual so you can log in from wherever you are. If you are on campus and need a quiet place to log in, we have reserved watch rooms for each event. Please RSVP via Symplicity, if you have any questions, reach out to Mahrya in the career center.
