It is common, but not required.
A prosecutor gets hired with a salary, a private attorney does not get paid if he does not have clients.
It makes for better financial stability, lets you get some experience, and helps pay off student loans.

Prosecutors are government employees (except in civil matters). Defense attorneys are usually part of a firm (private practice), except for public defenders, who are not members of the prosecutors office. Occasionally someone will quit the public defenders office and join the prosecutors office but they are not interconnected.

The best ones do. They learn how the system works and can use it against them to become successful trial attorneys.

Certainly not ALL, but it is absolutely common for that to happen.

No truth to this whatsoever.
