Is it worth it to clerk for a magistrate judge? How is that type of clerkship viewed by Big Law afterward? Because I'm a transfer, I missed out on landing a big law job for 2L summer. My plan is to clerk and open up my options for post-clerkship. I always hear about District Ct and COA clerkships and how much that can help your career; but magistrate judges are all over OSCAR.
Thoughts?
