Re: Public Defender Applications - 2022
FYI, the Federal Public Defender system has opened applications for a new diversity fellowship program, which are 12 paid 2-year fellowships in 12 different offices around the country. It's open to 3Ls and recent grads, and a great way to get your foot in the door in the federal system. Details at https://diversityfellowship.fd.org/frontpage

Re: Public Defender Applications - 2022
I haven't heard anything from CPCS - I've heard they usually send out an essay packet sometime after Thanksgiving.
Re New Hampshire - I've heard they've extended about half their offers so far, but they're not done hiring.

I've heard New Hampshire has given about half their offers so far, but is still hiring.
As for CPCS, I haven't heard anything, but in past years they have sent out an essay packet sometime after Thanksgiving.

King County has made offers as well. Anyone have word on Prettyman offers?Anonymous User wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 8:52 pmI believe PDS has made offers, NYCDS is doing second rounds, Colorado has been making offers, Prettyman is done interviewing, Maryland has been doing second rounds for a while but idk about offers, Miami has made offers...
Also, looks like Brooklyn put up a posting for entry-level criminal practice, but it's unclear if it's for fall 2022 or sooner.

Re: Public Defender Applications - 2022
Cold application to Defender Association of Philadelphia, have a panel interview this weekend. Has anyone done this and have any advice? Should I be prepared to give a closing argument? Interview a client? Answer ethics hypos? Leave in tears?

Re: Public Defender Applications - 2022
I interviewed and have heard nothing. Wondered if maybe they've made offers and are waiting to see if the candidates they offered say yes before turning everyone else down? That's just speculation, though. Haven't heard of anyone receiving an offer.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Dec 24, 2021 2:42 pmAnybody hear of Prettyman offers going out? Usually before Xmas…

I'm pretty sure Prettyman Fellows have been selected. Not sure about BxD. Maryland has also made offers but I think will do more in spring.

Has anyone heard about offers from Federal Defenders of San Diego? I did a second round interview in December and have not heard back.

Yes, mine is scheduled for mid/late February. I scheduled it about two weeks ago.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
