USPTO is opening a satellite office in Silicon Valley this fall and is actively recruiting up to 80 talented Engineers in the Electrical, Computer and Mechanical disciplines to work for us in our new satellite office.
Beginning in May, vacancies for Patent Examiners will be listed on USAJOBS. But we are looking to connect with top talent right now!
To help pave the way for ongoing recruitment efforts, and to help spread the word about our upcoming open vacancies, a team of recruiters from USPTO’s Patent Corps will be hitting the road this week! Starting Monday, April 13 through Friday, April 17th, in their first-ever recruitment road trip – the Patents team will be connecting with Engineering students and Faculty at 12 colleges and universities in Northern and Southern California!
The team will be participating in career fairs, hosting special information sessions and conducting Meet & Greets with both Faculty and student-run Engineering organizations.
The events are free, but only open to current students and alumni with seating available on a first-come, first-served basis. Schedules are posted below. If you don't see location information provided below for the event you would like to attend, please contact your school for specific details:
