How to write a legal resume
Clerkship is built for lawyers, graduates and paralegals applying to firms and in-house teams. The template handles the formatting — these are the content rules that win interviews in this field:
- 1Precision is the audition: one typo on a legal resume ends the application.
- 2Name practice areas and matter types explicitly — they're exactly what clerkship screeners search.
- 3Keep the format austere and chronological; legal recruiting is the most conservative market there is.
