Right but if you did not get an interview by now, you should give up hope right?

I think ima give it one or two more weeks.

[Anonymous User]

have any offers even been granted?

The odds of more interview invites going out are not zero, but they are pretty slim.

yes

[Anonymous User]

Are offers made via phone or via email?

[Anonymous User]

VCW has issued interviews.

[Anonymous User]

I feel like this has become one of the most competitive clerkships in the country

[Anonymous User]

Does anyone have perspective on what sort of credentialing VCL looks for?

Weirdly noone from my school has ever clerked for him

Don’t they all sit down and pick their clerks together? Weird to hear that some offers were already made

They must''ve changed it.

They must''ve changed it.

This is still how they pick clerks from the general applicant pool (like 80%+). There are a few caveats to this practice, including for applicants that have only applied to one judge.

Then back to the original anon post, it is weird to hear that some offers were already made. Any insight? Are you saying the offer that was made was because the applicant only applied to one judge? If so, I can tell you for certain that's not true.

Quoted anon here. I wrote that there are a *few* caveats. I’m not going to get into the others because they’re not really gameable by future applicants.

Understood. Thank you for the clarification, sorry I missed the *few caveats* part lol

I hope everyone here gets offers/interview invites this week! Fingers crossed!

Are any of the judges still conducting interviews? Or are they all finished?

My guess, interviews are done. Maybe there are a few stragglers here and there but for the most part I would expect this week we hear back.

Can anon clerk confirm - if you interviewed and get rejected will you get notified? or is ghost = rejection?

[Anonymous User]

anon clerk, please don't leave us hanging. I'm curious about this too.

*avatar theme music* Only the anon-clerk, insight with this crazy process could help the applicants. But when the world needed anon-clerk the most anon-clerk vanished.

Anon clerk here. I suspect the people who got interviews but ultimately weren’t selected will get rejection letters.

People who have heard back from an interview, either yay or nay, how long did it take to hear back?

More questions on top of this:
Decision received by phone or email?
Any word on CM interview and/or offers?

Plz & Thx anon clerk

Not anon clerk, but assuming offers would be by phone and rejections by email (pretty standard).

Do you know what's standard for timeline between interview and offer? I.e., how long after interview can you assume an offer won't follow?
