What are the promotion paths for Patent examiners?
Main line of professional skills: focus on the technology in the audited field, get as close as possible to the technicians in this field, and use all possible time and resources to become experts in this field. I know some examiners. After four or five years, I can know that comparative documents can be found in all the cases I have tried without searching. There are also examiners who publish four or five professional articles a year, and the professional depth is not lost to industry R&D personnel or experts; There are examiners who can communicate freely with R&D personnel and even face-to-face with enterprises to solve technical problems. Examiners have natural resource advantages in obtaining technical information. Those who are interested in technology can take this road, even if they leave their jobs in the future, it will be a hot project for enterprises or industries.

The second line of professional skills: take the PCT or review route. PCT examiners need excellent foreign language skills and have good opportunities to communicate with the World Intellectual Property Office. In addition, reviewing PCT cases is also a good opportunity to learn from foreign cases. The second interview is another mountain for examiners. When dealing with invalid cases, the thinking of retrial is different from that of actual trial. When exposed to a large number of patent cases from the front line, the examiner will have a deeper thinking about the patent right. Both the PCT and the review route have accumulated many years of experience, and it is also a hot cake after going out.

The second line of professional skills: take the route of patent analysis and consultation. Patent information belongs to technical information type. It is very valuable for enterprises, industries or industries to collect, sort out and interpret patent information. Patent right can only play a real role in the circulation of enterprises and industries as an element, not just a certificate. This line requires completely different thinking, methodology and censorship. It needs to be more professional, comprehensive and flexible. If you want to do it well, you must work hard.

Other skills 1: If you are willing to be an examiner all the time and are not interested in other professional skills, you can develop your hobbies and skills, such as photography, dance, art, cooking, fitness and programming. Now that the media has penetrated so deeply, it may become popular one day!

Other Skills Branch 2: If you plan to leave one day, make preparations early. Examiners can not only go out as agents, do patent consulting and analysis, or do enterprise intellectual property rights, but also go to investment banks for private placement, or switch to research and development, or switch to products, or do technology transactions. Look at IQ, EQ, accumulation and layout.
