I haven't spent time around judges, so I need some tips for my interview tomorrow. I would really like this job.
Right now, I'm reading how the federal district court works, and I read "nail your law job interview." I don't think I am great at interviewing, but I'm feeling more confident than usual.
So, any tips would be helpful.
