Patent Agent Interview Questions

I answered yes, and provided an example of how I planned to meet deadlines by not expending a lot of time preparing an amendment, but instead first vetting the planned response with senior counsel. This was an excellent question and response. And as it turns out, a few months later Microsoft began following the same paradigm, requiring outside counsel to submit office action recommendations rather than a prepared amendments.

I don't remember what my reply was, but I do remember thinking, why is he asking me this question, I am a patent agent applying for a patent agent position.

His preferance was to write the claims first. When I answered they other way, he did not like it!

I said I knew hartford was a cold and small city but I had experience of living in such cities :-/

I made it clear that, although at times decisions must be made quickly on limited data, I prefer to gather what science/data is available and let that drive my decision making.
