That is awesome. Congrats! Do you mind sharing your path to that job when you get a chance?
I'm a 1L who would like to go that route, and am working on securing a summer job now in NYC. Haven't heard back from any of the DA/DOJ/AG offices that I applied to in December, but have 7 interviews lined up at a OCI-like career fair at the end of this week. Two are with public defender offices, and the rest are general direct representation public interest organizations. Trying to decide how important it is that my 1L summer job is at least in the criminal sector, especially in a super competitive market like the NYC metro area.
