BACKGROUND<\/strong><\/p>\n

The U.S. Army Judge Advocate General\u2019s (JAG) Corps interviews interested applicants for both paid summer internships and for commissioned service as an officer in the JAG Corps.\u00a0 Applications are due by October 1st.\u00a0 The application process consists of two parts.\u00a0 First, you must complete an interview with a Field Screening Officer (FSO).\u00a0 An FSO will visit your law school to conduct interviews.\u00a0 You are also required to submit an online application along with supporting documentation. Both parts must be completed prior to the October 1st deadline.<\/p>\n

OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE<\/strong><\/p>\n

2L Summer Internship<\/strong>:\u00a0 The internship runs for 60 calendar days beginning after Memorial Day.\u00a0 Interns can be assigned to any JAG office worldwide.\u00a0 Interns must pay their own travel and lodging costs but will be assigned a sponsor at their duty station to help them find housing and settle into the area.\u00a0 Summer interns assist Judge Advocates in a variety of practice areas, including legal assistance (family law, consumer law, estate planning, tax law, military administrative law), administrative law, and helping to prepare criminal and civil cases by conducting legal research, writing briefs and opinions.<\/p>\n

Active Duty<\/strong>:\u00a0 3Ls and graduates are eligible to apply.\u00a0 Active Duty Judge Advocates assume immediate challenges and responsibility upon their first assignment, and can practice in a variety of areas, including criminal law, administrative law, legal assistance (family law, consumer law, estate planning, tax law, military administrative law), claims, and national security law.\u00a0 New Judge Advocates will be assigned with experienced military and civilian attorneys for mentorship and guidance.\u00a0 Judge Advocates come from virtually every state, and the JAG Corps fosters an environment that encourages professional growth and development coupled with an enhanced quality of life.<\/p>\n

Army Reserve<\/strong>:\u00a0 3Ls and graduates are eligible to apply.\u00a0 Serving as an Army Reserve Judge Advocate is a perfect option for those who wish to maintain their civilian employment and serve their country part-time.\u00a0 Applicants interested in applying for selection for both Active Duty and Army Reserve may interview with the Active Duty FSO visiting campus.\u00a0 Applicants interested in applying only for the Army Reserve must contact an Army Reserve FSO (contact information is available on our website).<\/p>\n

\u00a0INTERVIEW AND APPLICATION TIPS<\/strong><\/p>\n

The FSO is assigned to interview and assess candidates for both the Intern Program and Active Duty selection, and for applicants who are applying for combined Active Duty and Army Reserve selection.\u00a0 The FSO submits a written report with recommendations to the selection board prior to the October 1st application deadline.\u00a0 The selection board reviews all FSO reports in conjunction with your full application before choosing the most qualified applicants.<\/p>\n

Take the interview seriously.\u00a0 Entry into the Army JAG Corps is a competitive process. The FSO is the only individual who will be meeting with you in person and making an assessment to the selection board about your ability to be successful in the Army JAG Corps.\u00a0 This is your opportunity to shine and to let the FSO know in greater detail about your interest in the JAG Corps, including the qualifications you bring.\u00a0 It also allows you time to ask questions.\u00a0 Please come prepared and dressed professionally.<\/p>\n

Review the online application and required documents prior to your interview.\u00a0 The interview is only a small portion of the application process, and you should be familiar with the application prior to the interview. Further information is available at www.jagcnet.army.mil\/apply<\/p>\n

If you need to conduct an interview virtually, please contact your FSO directly.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Army Judge Advocate General\u2019s Corps does not unlawfully discriminate. Please see the Solomon Amendment, 32 CFR 216, and 10 USC \u00a7 983<\/p>\n
