Judicial clerkships are a valuable opportunity for graduates to witness behind the scenes of a judge's chambers and courtroom. The intensive training enhances writing, research, and legal analysis skills, and the close exposure to a wide range of cases and current legal issues is professionally rewarding. The prestige of a judicial clerkship follows a lawyer throughout his or her career. Some employers actively recruit judicial clerks. Nearly all potential employers recognize the honor attached to a clerkship and the value of its "inside" experience.
