In addition to the above posted listing, I need someone to take over my apt lease which ends June 30th. It's empty and available to move into today. The price is only $750. The complex is called Foxchase and has free shuttle that takes you directly to King st. metro, which is also where the PTO is located. Please email if interested. townes dot property at gmail dot com. Thanks.

I also have been waiting for months for feedback following my PTO application (molecular biology, Ph.D., USPTO registered). A previous poster said that no more biotech examiners are to be hired in '07- a pretty devastating rumor for some of us. Can anyone corroborate this? Perhaps we can guage a timeline for all the nail-biters: for some of you starting now, when did you first apply, and what field of work? What might be the ratio of GS-9s to GS-11s coming in?

You heard correctly, biotech is not hiring. I would recommend applying in the organic chemistry area if you feel like you would be comfortable with that subject matter, they are hiring. Mostly GS-11's seem to be coming in.

"Do you mean as a patent agent? The salaries I've seen for agents (with ~1 year experience) are in the $60K-$80K range. Am I looking in the wrong places? " Getting $95 in Seattle. That's not quite double what I was making in VA, but it's close.
