SELECTION BY EMPLOYERS, FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES AND TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT
If you are selected for summer
employment, you will receive a letter from the employer confirming the
selection and the details of employment. The final decisions will not be made
by the PDLG – in fact, the PDLG will not have advance information about
employment decisions.
If you are not
offered a job by the employer who interviews you, your
application and the other information that was developed
about you during the review process will be made available
to any interested PDLG member for consideration. Of course,
if you prefer that not be done, please let us know. In
addition, your application can also be provided to the
Montgomery Bar Association Diversity Committee for
consideration under its new summer 1L program for diverse
law students. This year, participants in that program also
will be chosen from PDLG applicants. On the PDLG application
form there will be an opportunity to choose whether to take
advantage of this Montgomery opportunity.
As a summer clerk you will receive the
same salary other first-year summer clerks would be paid within the
organization. Salaries will differ significantly among the firms and
organizations.
Each participating employer has
committed to fully involve any summer clerk hired through the PDLG Program in
its summer associate/internship program, provide the summer clerk with a mentor
(if customary), offer continuing feedback and training and provide at least one
comprehensive feedback session. The PDLG representative of the employer or his
or her designee will serve as an additional mentor. In addition, the PDLG hopes
to pair summer clerks who are not working at a law firm with one of our member
law firms so that all clerks will have the opportunity to be involved in at
least some law firm summer training and social events.
