Stapleton is interviewing grads

Anonymous said...

Have Fisher, Hardiman or Weis (Pittsburgh) started interviewing any grads? When do they typically start?

Anonymous said...

Garth is done

Chagares is interviewing grads

Anonymous said...

I think Fisher and Weis wait until (mid?) August to interview grads. Not sure about Hardiman.

Anonymous said...

J. Roth has hired one.

Anonymous said...

are there any positions available in D. Del, besides Robinson and the bankruptcy judges? no one else is on either OSCAR or the clerkship database.

Anonymous said...

Judge Barry hired at least one clerk to start fall 2008.

Anonymous said...

Barry's chambers said she was finished when I called, but might want to confirm.

Anonymous said...

Got the same answer from Barry's chambers - and she's not accepting 2009 term apps yet either.

Ambro has hired two.

Smith is done according to Oscar.

Aldisert's clerks are conducting pre-interviews over the phone, but indicate that he will follow the plan as to scheduling personal interviews.

Anonymous said...

How many pre-interview calls does Aldisert make? What are they looking for?

Anonymous said...

General question: What's the deal with Aldisert? A 3rd circuit judge sitting in Santa Barbara? Does he take many cases still?

Adam P. said...

aldisert's in Santa Barbara for health reasons. |He hears cases through teleconference.

Fisher is scheduling

Anonymous said...

has Aldisert called yet?

Anonymous said...

Who has called today?

Anonymous said...

Fisher is scheduling

Anonymous said...

Chief Judge Scirica is scheduling.

Anonymous said...

When people say "scheduling" do they mean the judge has already called and left a message, and people are already calling back to schedule interviews? Or does "scheduling" just refer to getting a call to schedule an interview?

Anonymous said...

Has anyone heard from Aldisert today?

Anonymous said...

Nope, 1:45PM. I'm really hoping he comes through though.

Anonymous said...

Ambro is calling for 09-10

Anonymous said...

Aldisert seems like the type of guy who would make calls first thing in the morning. But maybe that's just my pessimism.

Anonymous said...

any word on hardiman?

Anonymous said...

Aldisert's chambers sent out an email at 9:01 this morning asking selected applicants to call and schedule an interview. The email was not personalized, so my guess is that it was sent at the same time to all the applicants he wanted to interview in person.

Anonymous said...

Anyone know how many people Fisher generally interviews or whether he tends to make offers on the spot?

Anonymous said...

As of about 12:15p, Hardiman was calling to schedule interviews.

Anonymous said...

Fisher is calling for Sep 19 & 20 interviews.
Hardiman is calling for Sep 24 interviews.

Jordan is scheduling.

Anonymous said...

Weis?

Anonymous said...

Anyone know how Fisher makes offers? At the interview? Or X days later? Also, anyone know if he gives any time to think about it?

Anonymous said...

Does anyone know if Chagares called

Anonymous said...

Fisher made some more calls for 19/20 interviews.

Anonymous said...

Any guesses as to how many that means he is bringing in to interview? Over 10?

Anonymous said...

he=Fisher

Anonymous said...

I heard that Columbia, SC judge just filled a spot.

Anonymous said...

Oops, ignore last post, i'm in the wrong circuit.

so much for attention to detail...

Anonymous said...

I would like to know if Fisher offers on the spot as well.

Anonymous said...

2:13- I also received a call from Fisher (& had not posted about it on here). Thus, it looks like there are now at least 5 posts on here about his 2 waves of scheduling that all appear to be from different posters. I'd assume that he is interviewing a large pool.

Anonymous said...

Well, Fisher is only doing two days. I can't imagine more than 4 or 5 per day.

Anonymous said...

I've never heard of Judge Fisher making an exploding offer.

Anonymous said...

Van Antwerpen?

Anonymous said...

Van Antwerpen has made at least some calls (probably Friday or today, but I don't know for sure when).

Anonymous said...

Anyone hear anything about Fuentes?

Anonymous said...

Fisher notifies within the week.

Anonymous said...

Anyone hear from Fisher yet?

Anonymous said...

Fisher already set up interviews if that's what you are asking.

Offers likely tomorrow.

Anonymous said...

Does anyone know if Cowen has hired yet?

Anonymous said...

I know Fisher is done interviewing, I am interested in whether anyone who has interviewed with him has heard back yet?

Anonymous said...

I know someone who interviewed with him, but that person has not received a call today, Friday, as of yet. Anyone else?

Anonymous said...

Same. No calls yet from Fisher.

Anonymous said...

I am the 8:01 poster, no call either.

Anonymous said...

End of business on Friday... no calls for Fisher?

Anonymous said...

Fisher posted as filled on FLCIS, I am assuming that means he is done.

Anonymous said...

For those of us who interviewed with Fisher but did not receive calls, hopefully he closed FLCIS because he is not accepting any more applications and will be calling after the weekend. *fingers crossed*

Anonymous said...

Ha. I have same hope. It is dim.

Anonymous said...

Fisher's OSCAR listing also says "Filled." No one has news on whether he made Friday calls??

Anonymous said...

Fisher rejection letter received today, Saturday the 22nd.

Anonymous said...

So I guess Fisher filled his spots but no one who got them reads the blog or wants to post?

Anonymous said...

11:45AM -- I assume you interviewed with Fisher, or did you just apply and get the letter?

Anonymous said...

Yep. Had interview, got rejection letter.

Anonymous said...

Not surprised. His office was sketchy about this whole process.

Anonymous said...

Is there a reason there's so much interest in Fisher? I'm a 2L trying to get a sense for next year. I'm wondering why he seems to have more interest than some of the others on this circuit?

Anonymous said...

My friend got an offer from Fisher on Thursday night.

Anonymous said...

Because some people interviewed with him on Wednesday and Thursday, and they are trying to get a feel as to whether he has extended all of the offers already.

Anonymous said...

Van Antwerpen has hired at least two.

Anonymous said...

Hardiman hired a Northwestern 3L today.

Anonymous said...

Does anyone know anything about Chagares?

Anonymous said...

Aldisert is done. Hired 1 from Hastings and 1 from UCLA.

Anonymous said...

I heard that Fisher hired one from Penn.

Anonymous said...

where else did fisher hire from?

Anonymous said...

Is Scirica done?

Anonymous said...

I wonder if the number of applications received by Sloviter has decreased since the publication of The Chambermaid.

Anonymous said...

Barry hired two BC grads, one who currently clerks for a federal district judge and one who currently clerks for a state supreme court.

Anonymous said...

Yes, 10/2/07, Scirica is done. Finished on the first day, I believe.

Received a rejection letter from Jordan yesterday, confirming his hiring is complete.
