General Clerkship Advice & Directories
https://lawclerks.ao.uscourts.gov- The Federal Law Clerk Information System. This new federal database allows court staff to post information about upcoming or existing law clerk vacancies that can be accessed by prospective applicants. This system is intended to assist law clerk applicants
by making it easier to learn about clerkship opportunities and judges' hiring practices.
Federal judges are asked to begin posting law clerk vacancy announcements and hiring information in the system.
This is voluntary for judges, so it is not 100% exhaustive.
