Career - Patent Examiner

Patent Examiners will analyse application documents to determine whether legislative requirements are met and will assess whether the patent rights sought are justified and match the invention's technical description. They will search online databases to discover similar patents held in Australia and overseas and will assess whether the advances claimed for the originality of the invention's features are new. They will communicate with the patent applicant or their legal representative and depending on experience, either recommend or approve the acceptance of a patent application.
