Thank you for your advice.
Let's just say that the four or five months spent won't be taken into account at least, because they won't have given you any real experience, and thus won't provide you with any added value. In other words, if you want to change firm only for four months to go to Stanford, thinking that it will improve your chances to get admitted, don't do it. You should stay around two years if you want to have a real added value. Besides, if this is a top law firm in your country, they would never bring you back and you may find it hard to sell yourself on your market afterwards.

Hi Folks, this is excellent - very helpful
I am from India and have go a JD from India and LLM from the US (Notre Dame). Am currently teaching international human rights law in a prestigious law school in India. Am I eligible to apply for the SPILS program considering they prefer those who have law degree from outside of the US? Also, what tips would you suggest for the preparation of application? What about funding - I can barely afford a single penny on my own????? Basically I really want to get into JSD in a top law schools - and thought SPILS could be a good entry point..... please advice.......
I graduated (LL.M.) magna cum laude from Notre Dame law school in the US, but have no international publications - will that help????
