Top Law Schools

Hi guys, for some reason my browser won't let me search this site but is it good experience working for the AG office for half the summer and a fed distrcit judge for the other half? Will that make me look too devoted to gov't or criminal work? And will working for a deeply Republican AG alienate me from democratic employers. BUT, the judge was an Obama appointee so that's a mitigating factor i guess.

Edit: this is my 1L summer

Those are two common/generic 1L summer internships. I doubt they would raise any eyebrows about your interests or politics or otherwise.

what if i worked in capital litigation? would that change the calculus?

If you put that on your resume, people will infer that you're conservative and interested in being a prosecutor. But that still won't matter to most interviewers. There are plenty of former prosecutors at big firms.
