Hey All: Currently clerking, summered at BigLaw firm after 2L. Didn't officially accept because of clerkship, but very strongly suggested to HR/partner mentor that I'd be returning.
I'm now thinking about exploring other firm opportunities, which of course requires that I would send out apps. Should I be worried that thew new firms I apply to will call up the firm I summered at when the see it on my resume? Do ppl generally apply other places after clerkships when they summered/rec'd offer at a different firm? FWIW, I'm looking to go to a smaller firm (so not swapping biglaw for biglaw).
Thanks!

They will almost certainly call the place you summered at.

who do they usually speak to? if you had a bad review will that play a huge role? (compared to, say, a strong recommendation from my judge(s))
