\n
Many distinguished attorneys began their careers through the Attorney General\u2019s Honors Program — the largest and most prestigious federal entry-level attorney hiring program of its kind. ENRD is an enthusiastic participant in the Attorney General\u2019s Honors Program. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Eligibility for the Honors Program Eligibility is generally limited to graduating law students and recent law school graduates who entered judicial clerkships, graduate law programs, or qualifying legal fellowships within 9 months of law school graduation and who meet additional eligibility requirements [see below]. Selection Criteria Justice takes pride in the fact that we consider the \u201cwhole candidate\u201d when making selections for employment. Selections are made based on many elements of a candidate\u2019s background including a demonstrated commitment to government service, academic achievement, leadership, law review or moot court experience, legal aid and clinical experience, past employment, and extracurricular activities that relate to the work of Justice and the relevant component. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Every year the Department hires a significant number of entry-level attorneys through the Honors Program. Selectees represent diverse backgrounds and interests, and come from law schools throughout the country. The Honors Program is centrally managed by the Office of Attorney Recruitment and Management, but each participating component reviews the applications submitted and makes independent hiring decisions. How to Apply Candidates interested in starting their career as an entry-level attorney with Justice must apply through the Attorney General\u2019s Honors Program via an on-line application. For employment in 2022, the application opens on July 31, 2021, and closes on September 8, 2021. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
