I haven't heard of anyone yet - maybe delayed by shutdown? Anyone else?

Re: Bristow Fellowship 2014
You have to be competitive for SCOTUS to get Bristow. You have to have a COA clerkship obviously. 2/9/DC is ideal. Magna at T14 or summa elsewhere and clerking for a feeder COA judge is a probably must.Anonymous User wrote:I'm contemplating applying for next year - how many people apply?

Obviously there are outliers, such as people with White House and/or military experience. But it's arguably easier to get SCOTUS since there are 9 times the spots.

Re: Bristow Fellowship 2014
Seems like an outlier every year.

Re: Bristow Fellowship 2014
I know rejection letters have been sent out. Wondering when the announcement will be made? ATL had the names out in mid/late November last year.

Re: Bristow Fellowship 2014
Inspired by the SCOTUS clerk taking questions thread, I wanted to toss out a couple of questions about the Bristow and see if anyone happens to know the answers:
-Is there an interview for the Bristow? I didn't see anything about one on the DOJ's web page.
-Does anyone know if there are any law firms that pay monetary bonuses for the Bristow, in any amount? If so, does anyone know how much?
-Does politics play a role in Bristow hiring? The Solicitor General is appointed by the President. Does any political aspect trickle down to Bristow hiring? Any elaboration on this point would be helpful.
Thanks in advance for any information.

Does anyone have any thoughts on these questions? I'm pretty sure there isn't an interview, but no idea on the other two.Anonymous User wrote:Inspired by the SCOTUS clerk taking questions thread, I wanted to toss out a couple of questions about the Bristow and see if anyone happens to know the answers:
