[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look into patent attorney work. USPTO used to have tons of telework positions (although they were under scrutiny for crappy practices a year or two ago). [/quote] where did OP say she was a patent attorney?[/quote] She didn’t, and from her post, unlikely that she is. This highlights a fundamental problem with this communication method- too many posting who lack any understanding or information of what they post. [/quote] But DC is an area for networking! Just because I am not an attorney doesn't mean I don't know multiple patent attorneys who came from non-patent backgrounds. They had to choose a technical field and take some classes (I want to say 24 course hours?), but it didn't require getting a degree in the field. They may have had an additional exam or certification to pass, too, but if OP wants flexibility, taking online or night classes while doing contract work during the day is not impossible. [/quote]
