Attorney General’s 2025 Honors Program

Deadline to Apply: Monday, August 11, 2025

The Washington State Attorney General’s Office (AGO) is pleased to invite eligible candidates to apply to its 2025 Honors Program.

The Honors Program is a yearly opportunity for qualified third-year law students (those graduating in the Spring of 2026) to apply for permanent, entry-level Assistant Attorney General (AAG) positions.

Historically, the Honors Program culminates in offers of an AAG position to approximately 5 applicants. Those who receive offers will be placed into AAG positions starting in August/September of 2026. Offers are contingent upon passing the July 2026 Washington State Bar examination.

Visit the AGO’s Honors Program website to learn more.

To be considered for the program, apply on the Washington State Careers website.

In addition to fully completing a profile on the careers website and responding to all supplemental questions, applicants must upload all required documents, preferably as PDFs.

Additional information, such as writing samples and additional letters of recommendation, will be accepted but are not required.

Required documents are:

  • A letter of interest
  • Resume
  • Law school transcript (unofficial copy is acceptable) and
  • Letter of recommendation
    • Note: This is the ONLY document that can be provided separately; however, it must be received by the deadline date of August 11, 2025. The letter should be sent via email to HREmployment@atg.wa.gov
    • If an applicant has ever served as an AGO Law Clerk, it is required that you provide a letter of recommendation from your AGO supervisor
