The USPTO seems to be recruiting electrical and computer science enginners.  I'm getting a B.S. in chemistry (not Chem Engr) in May, 2007.   What are the chances of getting in with the USPTO?
 
Thanks....

from what i've heard, you pretty much need a PHD in science to be considered, and even then, the chances aren't that great because there are not that many spots available.

Hi,
 
i just started working at the USPTO. There are about 70-80 people in my batch..usually there are upto 120. The good news is they are planning to hire about 1000 examiners a year for next few years. The first day is orientation, then they split you up in a group of 12-14 according to your expertise. The first 2 weeks are very basic, intro stuff. then they get into more technical detail. Overall its a good job. The dress code is business casual, like khakis and a collared shirt. Lemme know if you have any other questions.
