Webinar: Diversity & Inclusion Federal Clerkship Panel – Confidently Navigating Your Interview, April 4 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm EDT

So you’ve landed a federal clerkship interview. Congratulations! You are probably now wondering how to prepare. What should you know about the judge? Will you be quizzed on constitutional law? What if you are anticipating a period of planned leave during the clerkship or would like to know the judge’s policy on respecting religious observations, pronouns, disability accommodations, and so forth? Should you accept an on-the-spot offer? Our panel of current federal judges and former federal judicial law clerks will address these questions and more during a virtual webinar on April 4, 2022 from 3:00-4:00 p.m. ET.Please register to join this conversation.

This event is hosted by the Federal Bar Association, and co-hosted by MuBANY and the Muslim Judicial Clerkship Network, among others!
