How long after submitting an application via USAjobs can I expect a reply from HR? I submitted my app on 7/3 for EE PE. Thanks.

I'd like to find an apartment within walking distance (less than half a mile) from the DC Metro stations, such as the Pentagon, Crystal City, or Braddock. That way, if I start to work for USPTO, I will be able to completely use the Metro to go to work without any driving or parking headaches. Plus, USPTO will pay $110/month for transportation subsidy.
Can anyone suggest the names of apartments which are close to those 3 Metro stations I mentioned above?
Thank you for your kind assistance.

I have another question related to the above:
Do the Metro stations have parking? How much is parking at these stations, and is it very hard to get a spot during the commute time, such as between 7 and 8 am?
Thanks again.

You shouldn't just consider apartments on the metro line. Some apartments or other homes/townhouse rentals are on the Alexandria DASH bus routes. I take the AT10 Dash bus from Reed Avenue to King Street Metro, where most of the DASH lines have a stop. It's about a twenty minute commute to work and not nearly as crowded as the metro. You can see the DASH bus route and schedules by searching "DASH Alexandria" in Google.

Anastasia,
Thanks for the info. Are you working at USPTO?
If so, do you know if the Transportation Subsidy (don't know the exact term) will cover parking at Metro or bus stations?
