It blatantly exploits those who have the financial means to do work without pay, and robs those who actually need to get paid for the work they do of meaningful experiences. But that doesn’t mean the federal government is somehow above using this cheat code. We’ve written about this phenomenon before — beginning way back in 2011. But 10 years later and not much has changed, because the Department of Justice is, yet again, seeking experienced, barred attorneys to commit to a full-time, unpaid job. Hmmmm, I wonder just who is in a financial position to take advantage of this “opportunity” [all the side eye]. As the tipster who sent the below job listing to Above the Law noted, “The actual audacity.”
