I applied online. I interviewed at US Patent and Trademark Office in Apr 2021
Interview
30-minute WebEx interview (4/28). The interviewer asked standard questions posted here. They did NOT ask "How do you persuade someone?", "Tell me about a time where you have to perform an extensive research." and "How do you handle constructive criticism"? Rather, the four questions they asked me were about: multiple tasks, deadlines/time management, quality and communication (see details below). FYI: I haven't receive the decision yet, but I anticipate they'll notify everyone by this Friday (5/14).
