I did about two years in BIGLAW and I've done all core practice areas in the JAGC, so I'll be happy to answer questions and compare and contrast.

If you're talking about domestic disputes, yes, both as a prosecutor and as a legal assistance attorney.

If you're talking about same sex marriage, I've given training on the topic but I've never had to address an issue.

I would say that they are legal assistance, military justice and administrative law. I guess you could call op law a core competency, but I don't think many captains get meaningful experience in this area even if they're assigned to it. It's probably a lot more of an issue underway on a ship.

When the Army moved to the BCT model post-9/11, an O4 "Brigade Judge Advocate" position was created. He essentially works for the bde cdr, but he will still have a JAG in his rating chain (normally the SJA or DSJA). The trial counsel for each bde, in some cases, also got pushed down to the bde level, rather than working in a division office. So if you are a TC who works primarily out of the bde or a BJA, you will spend a lot of time answering to non-JAGs. Everyone else, except for O5+ is answering to other JAGs.

Deployments were very common up until about a year ago.

It's not very competitive and the National Guard is even less so. I think you get a five point hiring boost after you are "veteran" which I think means 180 days on active duty. So you'll have to get mobilized. I'm sure there's also a non-numerical boost.

It used to be easy. I would say now it's very difficult. And as mentioned, you have to wait four years. So if reserve is better than nothing, go for it. If you just want to backdoor your way onto active duty, prepare for a long ordeal.

Yes. Being a federal or state employee is the best deal for reservists, because these employers are very accommodating to reservists.

It's one weekend per month and two weeks per year.

Even if you raise your hand and jump up and down, you probably won't get deployed. That could change quickly if there is another war.

You can take two four day passes or leave. If you take the passes, you will have to be in Charlottesville for three duty days inbetween. If you take leave for the duration, you stop collecting per diem, which is about $600.

One is a full time job. One isn't. Is this a serious question?

Thanks for the specificity, asshole.

I'm sorry, but you can ask a more specific question. Obviously the differences are numerous.

I got dinged last fall, planning on applying again this year. Please tell me how to make my application stand out. What should I put in my essay? What the credited strategy for LORs?

I assume you have some sincere reason for wanting to join the military, beyond getting out of BIGLAW hell. Just write about that sincerely. The other thing you need to do is win over your FSO. That's becoming more important as things get more competitive. Look the part, meaning conservative makeup, tie your hair up, get fit if you're not already. And be able to speak intelligently about what JAs do. Lastly, be positive about things that turn some people off: doing PT, moving every few years, etc.

how accommodating is the military when you are in reserves regarding which weekend/two weeks you work?

do you know any assistant state attorneys who do reserves?

I've never been in the reserves, but from what I've seen the weekends are fixed. The two weeks can be satisfied any number of ways...e.g. go to Charlottesville for two weeks for a course, mobilize to Germany for two weeks and do some BS work, etc.

Yes.

Does blowing it out of the water at a T6 + a 2/9/DC clerkship help my chances at USMC JAG? Or is it basically an ABA accredited JD + my PFT score?

It helps, but only marginally. I was considered "the top" law contract when I got selected. The board was certainly impressed by my school, but I also had the best PFT and a recommendation from a colonel.
