Foreign Clerkships
Does anybody know the advantages/disadvantages of clerking on the Supreme Court of a foreign jurisdiction? I am considering applying to clerk there for a semester of my 3L year, but I don't know if it would look good on a resume/offer any career advantages. Does anybody have any information on this? I don't want to provide any more information in order to avoid outing myself. PM me if you need more details in order to offer advice. Thanks!

Re: Foreign Clerkships
Curious about this as well.
if you want to bump your post just bump it, but don't sock-puppet anonymously. Also, a 3L internship is not a judicial clerkship, so this should be in the legal employment forum.

Re: Foreign Clerkships
I think OCS is often pretty good at knowing about these kinds of internships that can never lead to post-grad jobs.

Re: Foreign Clerkships
lol at outing yourself with 14 posts.
as far as relevancy, for actual clerkships, I do know of some big firms that would consider that a foreign clerkship at the highest level a prestigious clerkship if they do business in that country (clients, office there).
