I have my interview (virtual) for a job position as a biology patent examiner this weekend. Hopefully watching this will help me understand most of the nuances related to the job. These upcoming weeks will be nerve wrecking as I wait for a decision!!

Also did a HireVue interview last week. Has anyone heard back from USPTO and gotten an interview with a person?

@@alpha4784 I’ve been diving into the patent sub Reddit. The expectation is that we won’t have an interview with an actual person. Additionally, it takes around a month to hear back from the USPTO. If for some reason we are not selected, the application gets reviewed once again on the next cutoff.

Post-AIA US law no longer permits invalidation of a US patent for failure to disclose the best mode, although technically the best mode is still required to be disclosed by the language of 35 U.S.C. Section 112.

I have heard that I can add amendments to my provisional patent application 10 months or so after filing my provisional patent application and it extends it another year as the project is morphing and being more refined. Is this true on adding amendments to the provisional patent application?

Not true.

I would not suggest risking your invention based on something you heard. You can file any number of other provisional patent applications to get a filing date for any new subject matter you want to add. You have to file a non provisional application by 12 months of the first provisional application if you want to preserve the filing date of the first provisional application. This may be important if your invention was disclosed after filing the first provisional or some art published that is material to patentability.

Sounds like a lengthy process. Automation!?

Sounds like a potentially patentable idea.

Did someone forget to mention Restriction Requirement? Because in real cases, this is the first thing that an examiner does before even reading the application !
