[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Patent Attorneys work long hours, so probably not that. To me, it sounds like he wants a government sector STEM job. [/quote] How do you get a government sector STEM job? Can you give an example?[/quote] This year is not normal, but in a normal year someone with a relevant CS or engineering degree often can get a government STEM job at any of these local places: NIST in Gaithersburg Army Research Lab in Adelphi NASA Goddard in Greenbelt NSWC in Carderock or in Indian Head DISA at Ft Meade If one has a BSN+RN or a graduate degree in Bio or Chem, then possibly at NIH in Bethesda. Right now many government orgs, but not all, have a hiring freeze. Some DoD orgs have a limited waiver from that hiring freeze narrowly for STEM jobs. Tech firms along the Silver Line usually pay better than the government, but they want a lot more than 40 hours/week and have limited time off. [/quote]
