I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Circuit Court of Cook County (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2023
Interview
Screener interview with current law clerk to go over materials and job aspects. The following interview was a more formal one with the judge. Both of the interviews were in person.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me to explain my legal research and writing processes.
Fairly easy process. It's really about seeing if you mesh well with the judge and whether you're a good writer or not; if you have the potential to become a good writer.
