Looking for advice from current/former clerks before I haul off and create 50-100 apps. I graduated with a 3.79 from UT. The school doesn’t rank but I didn’t get order of the coif. I clerked for a flyover district judge right off of school and I’m currently clerking for a mag judge in a more competitive district. In between I was in private practice (writing intensive lit, but not big law). I’d like to continue clerking for my four years before considering returning to private practice. I’m only looking at district judges (mostly anywhere) and mag judges (competitive districts like cd cal or sdny or edny).
Any thoughts on chances or how to make my app stand out? I have a letter of rec from my first judge. But I don’t have anyone to make calls for me or anything.

Unabashed, shameless bump.
