CORA helps courts identify and attract qualified interns, externs, and law clerks from diverse backgrounds and experiences. CORA expands a court’s ability to reach interested applicants nationwide.
Courts have their own portal to upload opportunities. We would love to show you how to navigate it, and also get to know you and your court. Please schedule a 30-minute Zoom call with us and we would be happy to get you involved.
We are accepting clerkships, externships, and internship opportunities. Internship opportunities can be in any division of your court, for instance, IT. It does not have to be an internship under a judge or administrator. Your opportunities can be in person or remote.
Yes. Let’s say you need to upload the opportunity but a judge or someone else needs to review the applications. You can let us know if multiple people from your court will need access to the applications (names and email) and we can add them for that one opportunity.

Unless we have questions, our team will have it uploaded within 3-5 business days.
All applicants will be asked to submit their resume, cover letter, transcript, and at least one letter of recommendation. Applicants will need to upload a writing sample, and two additional letters of recommendation if they are applying for an externship or clerkship.
Yes, if your court would rather have contact information for references or require a writing sample to be formatted in a specific way, we can edit your opportunity to reflect minor changes.
