Do you know whether any judges allow remote clerks?

Entirely dependent on the judge/court system. I'm in 5 days a week. Others are not.

I’m in whenever my judge is. Which seems typical in my courthouse. That can be five days a week or one day a week.

My friend's judge allows one of her clerks to work remotely. But that's only because of family emergency

I'm entirely remote except I come in on oral argument days 1-2 days a month (state court of appeals).

I am a federal district court clerk and work remotely 1-2 days a week.

I’m talking like full time remote lol

This is kind of impossible to predict unless you know it about the judge already. I know of a couple senior judges who live outside their district (and even outside the country) and remote-in or schedule all their hearings on a few-day period once a month or so. The clerks work remotely otherwise. I've also seen temporary clerks be advertised with the possibility of remote work, for example if a judge desperately needs somebody for 6 months immediately, they might consider a remote candidate. I've also seen career clerks who live in wholly different time zones than their judges, but that's based on an established relationship/understanding between the clerk/judge that I think would be pretty impossible to establish up front.

Some judges do. I am clerking at a BK court and one judge and her staff have been entirely remote for four years now. I am now remote with my judge due to a disability. I also used to be on a law clerk subcommittee and several of the clerks in that group were remote.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.

I went to a T14 law school, got great grades and glowing recommendations, and wrote (what I thought was) a great writing sample. But I got rejected from all 70 federal clerkships I applied to. The only thing I can think of is: I took a non traditional route after law school and did a 2 year public interest fellowship in a niche field of administrative law. The rejection gave me a lot of self hatred. I still really want to clerk. Any advice? What is wrong with me? I feel like a failure.

Interviewed with Chicago court 2 weeks ago; they decide mid-August. Interviewed with DC judge last week; hear from him by this Friday. Chicago said if I need an answer before August, they'd try to make a decision about me sooner.
Should I ask Chicago for an answer? Or should I wait until there's an offer from DC judge? Maybe seems better to withdraw before an offer is made rather than ask for time to think about it/turn down DC? What's proper etiquette?

We still aren’t operating at our previous capacity because it takes 10x the number of steps to get a motion heard or an order entered—90% of our workload.
