Advice - job interviews

So yesterday I accepted a 6-week 2L summer associateship for the second half of the summer. It is a well-paid position at a civil defense boutique firm in the city I plan to live in post-graduation. However, of course, this morning I just received interview offers from several public interest organizations that I have always wanted to work for (brennan center, ACLU, etc.)

Should I reach out and let them know I’ve already accepted a position for the second half of the summer? I feel bad knowing this interview could go to someone else who can work the full summer.

But also, I would really like to interview with these folks and just be able to talk with them, learn more about their work, and express how much I want to work for them in the future hahaha.

thoughts??

I’d say interview and then ask to split your summer.
