Re: DOJ Honors Program 2017-18
I am very curious how rankings affect offers. For all of you CLB finalists and offerees, did you put CLB as your first spot ranking? I am beginning to regret my rankings.

The wait is AWFUL! Not sure if this or waiting for bar results is worse.

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2017-18
Same anon as quoted. Got the offer on Friday via phone. I ranked Civil Division first and Commercial Litigation first within it. I also interviewed for Torts (ranked second within Civil) but was not a Finalist for that branch.Anonymous User wrote:The latter. AFAIK they don't make offers for particular sections.Anonymous User wrote:Did you accept with a particular section? Or just generally into CLB?Anonymous User wrote:Congrats! I guess you are the last Comm Lit acceptance since they were only hiring 3.Anonymous User wrote:Accepted Civil - Commercial Litigation this morning. (I'm not either of the two anons who posted on Friday.)

Has anyone heard back about references being checked or given offers for EOIR, besides OCIJ? (i.e. BIA, OGC, OCHAO)

No references checked. If you are comfortable saying have you received an offer with the honors program in a previous year. I was wondering if references might not be checked if that is the case.Anonymous User wrote:None from my end. References have not been checked.
