Public Interest Fellowship -> Biglaw

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Apr 07, 2021 6:48 pm

Hoping to get insight on the odds of going from a prestigious public interest fellowship (not Skadden/EJ) in a semi-niche litigation-based practice area to a biglaw litigation practice. I'm coming off of a D. Ct. clerkship and considering a fellowship, but I'm hoping to land in biglaw long-term. The fellowship will be great experience, but I'm worried about being relegated to PI work for the rest of my career.
