It's a little late in the game for Federal clerkships (from what anyone I've talked to has said)... I didn't realize that clerking was something I might like to do until about a month ago. Also, this court I have great connections to through my boss and the rest of my firm. I'm also very familiar with the a lot of the subject matter this particular court deals with and that makes me very marketable.
If I would've seriously considered clerking earlier, I might have tried for the 3rd Circuit because I have a few connections there as well.
