You can do it in preview with a mac too - just open every doc as a PDF in preview, then drag other PDF pages into the sidebar of one of them.Anonymous User wrote:If you have the documents in Word versions, you can combine them and then make a PDF of the entire thing.

(asking about actual email message, not subject line)Anonymous User wrote:When you submit the materials, do you address the contact person listed for the division/component found at the top of the component page in the body of the email? Wasn't sure about that since submissions for different divisions within the component (such as EOIR) are going to a common email address. Or should the salutation just say something like - "To Hiring Committee" ?

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2017-18
Does anyone know if withdrawing from SLIP after being selected for consideration hurts you if you want to apply to the HP later? I've been selected for consideration but just received a biglaw offer that will explode in two weeks. I have no idea how likely it is after making this initial cut that I'd actually be hired for SLIP. FedGov is my long-term goal, but if I didn't get hired for this after declining that biglaw offer, I'd be in pretty big trouble.

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2017-18
You should be able to get BigLaw to extend the offer until like March as long as you are only considering public interest jobs. There is a NALP rule/suggestion about it.Anonymous User wrote:Does anyone know if withdrawing from SLIP after being selected for consideration hurts you if you want to apply to the HP later?

Edit:
yeah it's Rule C.2. ... NALP wrote:Candidates may request that an employer extend the deadline to accept the employer’s offer until as late as April 1 if the candidate is actively pursuing positions with public interest or government organizations. Candidates may hold open only one offer in such circumstances. Employers are encouraged to grant such requests.

EOIR (OCIJ)—from an old thread here. I think I saw less-favorable odds for Civil.

Delayed response, but I actually turned down an offer from SLIP, and later was selected for HP, albeit it was a different division than the division I turned down.Anonymous User wrote:Does anyone know if withdrawing from SLIP after being selected for consideration hurts you if you want to apply to the HP later?

Not a vet. My status in Avue hasn't changed since the initial notifications were sent out last week and I found out about the interview through email.

Does anybody know if we find out ahead of time whether we are interviewing with individual sections within a division? For example I have interviews with the Commercial Litigation and Torts Branches. Each of those has many sections. Will we find out which section(s) we are interviewing for?

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2017-18
My understanding is that you interview for the Branch/Division. If you receive an offer then sometime after you accept (I was told several months by someone at NRED) they inform you of what section you will be placed in. But I have heard that they may ask which section you prefer to be in but not sure if that's the case for all Branches/Divisions.Anonymous User wrote:Does anybody know if we find out ahead of time whether we are interviewing with individual sections within a division?

Re: DOJ Honors Program 2017-18
Just got this about half an hour ago:
"Thank you for your interest in interning with the Executive Office for Immigration Review, Office of the Chief Immigration Judge. You have been selected for further consideration. If you wish to indicate your court location preferences, please complete and return the attached geographic preference sheet to me by COB on Friday, October 27, 2017. Although OCIJ attempts to accommodate candidate location preferences, placement in a preferred location is not guaranteed."
Past employees, does this mean I'm a finalist? How many rounds of this are there? Does OCIJ actually interview (via phone or otherwise) or is selection based on submitted materials?
