Requires a doctor of jurisprudence or equivalent law degree, and admission to the Oregon State Bar.  Full training will be provided.  For the right applicant, employment may be contingent on successful completion of the Oregon State Bar Exam.  

For new hires with no trial experience, you will start handling misdemeanor cases. But as soon as you show the ability, then advancement and opportunity will come quickly. Prosecutors in our office typically start handing felonies within a year of joining the office. You will be offered the opportunity to be “called out” in the middle of night to go with seasoned and experienced prosecutors to major crime scenes and be in a position to help advise the police on any legal issues they will face in  major investigations. You will have the opportunity to “second chair” major crimes as your knowledge grows.
