[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He could look into procurement/contracting and get a certification but that would also not be a GS-15 position. Maybe a GS 11/12, but that would be a 40 hour work week. The thing is that it is almost impossible to get a 40 hour work week right out of law school unless it is a judicial law clerk position and those pay around $60,000 these days (and they only last 1-2 years).[/quote] Judicial law clerk positions are competitive. Not many UMD Law grads become judicial law clerks.[/quote] Well, yes and no. Not many Maryland Law grads get federal clerkships. A huge number of Maryland Law grads get state court (circuit and appellate) clerkships. Unfortunately, for what OP’s husband wants, he’d need a federal clerkship. Which means he would absolutely need to CRUSH IT at Maryland Law. And then it would be several years in the government working up the pay scales.[/quote]
