Judicial Clerks joining Jones Day have the opportunity to be part of a Firm that has repeatedly earned high rankings for client service by the BTI Consulting Group, which bases its rankings on survey results from Fortune 1000 corporate counsel.

Judicial Clerks are welcome to submit applications at any time via our Application Portal.
Jones Day values the knowledge and experience judicial clerks gain from working closely with judges and justices and observing judicial proceedings, and for that reason many of our summer associates do clerkships before returning to Jones Day and we actively seek to hire other judicial clerks. More than 300 of our lawyers have served as clerks in federal or state trial and appellate courts, including a significant number of former U.S. Supreme Court clerks. We find that former law clerks appreciate the opportunities Jones Day offers to work on interesting, complex matters that draw on the skills developed through clerking. While many judicial clerks are interested in our appellate and general litigation work, including our Issues & Appeals Practice, a number of former clerks have joined Jones Day in other practices including M&A, Tax, Government Regulation, and Intellectual Property. Incoming clerks generally begin their careers at Jones Day in the New Lawyers Group, which allows them the freedom to explore various Firm practices before committing to one
Generally, judicial clerks joining Jones Day directly from a federal court clerkship receive a competitive bonus, reflecting the value the Firm places on the clerkship experience. In addition, the Firm provides credit for the time spent clerking for both compensation and seniority purposes
We welcome direct applications from judicial clerks via our Application Portal. We do not accept judicial clerk resumes from search firms Why Join Jones Day?
