Third year students may register for the Graduate Legal Assistant (post-bar clerk) or Deputy Attorney General exam online. The exam determines your placement on the hiring list. The exam is not substantive, but more like an employment application. To register go to http://ag.ca.gov/careers/exams.php, and then examination request form. The exams are given several times per year. The lists are good for one year. You cannot be considered for employment if you are not on the hiring list.
