Job Description *

The Judicial Resources Committee of the United States Judicial Conference and Just the Beginning – A Pipeline Organization is pleased to announce the annual Summer Judicial Internship Diversity Project (“SJID Project”). The SJID Project’s goal is to provide highly qualified law students from socioeconomic, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds underrepresented in the legal profession with summer judicial internships in the chambers of federal and state appellate judges, federal district judges, and federal bankruptcy and magistrate judges. The SJID Project is national in scope and seeks to place approximately 150 law students as judicial interns across the country.
Interns will have the opportunity to draft bench memoranda, judicial orders, and opinions on a variety of substantive matters, including motions to dismiss, motions for summary judgment, magistrate judge reports, and habeas corpus petitions. Applicants should possess strong research and writing skills and be prepared to handle the rigors of working in a court.
There are two rounds of review to select interns. In the first screening, the reviewers evaluate the application documents and look for minimal typographical errors; demonstrated ability to follow directions; 3.0 grade point average; and any supplemental considerations when a candidate has exhibited a need or ability. Students who do not go beyond the first screening are offered resources to improve their chances of obtaining a judicial internship in the future. During the second screening, the reviewers interview candidates to evaluate their level of preparation, professionalism, and response to substantive questions. Students who pass the first and second round of review are then matched to judges primarily based on the student’s geographic preference and residence. Judges will likely conduct their own interview to select the candidate that is the best fit for their chambers. More information about the review process can be found on page six.
Applicants must commit to two mandatory training workshops and hired interns must complete a legal writing assignment due in April 2023 to prepare them for the internship. Interns will also participate in SJID Project Toolkit, bi-weekly sessions in the summer that will provide resources and support throughout their internship. Candidates must be available to work full-time as an intern for a minimum of eight weeks.
TO APPLY: Click HERE to apply or visit our website, jtb.org.
