Let's Talk 3rd Circuit!

What is new? Anyone interview? General thoughts?

I know someone who interviewed with McKee a few weeks ago.
Any other movement out there? Also, what stats are needed for 3d Cir. generally?

Is McKee done? Did the person you know hear back?

Not sure.

McKee was done for 2014-2015 a while ago so he must be interviewing for 2015-16 :open_mouth:

Barry is not accepting applications. Jordan is full as well.

Anything else new?

Bump.

Ugh seriously? I feel like this whole circuit is dried up.

Is Sloviter done?

I’m at Penn. I’ve been told she only wants clerks with practice experience, or specific recommendations from professors she is close with.

Anything new with the Pennsylvania judges? Anyone interview?

Bump.

The Senate will likely confirm Patty Shwartz to the Court today.

It is pretty much. A couple of them are at least a couple years down the road, and take people with very firm connections.

Fuentes, Greenaway, and Chagares are reported to be full.

McKee hires many years in advance.

FWIW, Chagares hired an alum from my school last Fall. This person will be coming from a D.Ct. clerkship. I don’t know if he fills all of his spots with alums, but that may be the case.

It’s official, Senate confirms Shwartz to 3rd Circuit, 64-34

I understand this is discussed a little bit elsewhere in the forum. However, I’m wondering how exactly we (rising 3Ls) would apply? Would we just send a resume or all the standard materials? And to where?

TIA

Standard materials to her current chambers, addressed to Judge (not Magistrate) Shwartz.
