Einstein also worked at patent office

Working in the Patent Office

After college, Einstein floundered about for the next two years looking for work. He wanted to teach at a university, but couldn't get a job. Eventually, he settled for a job at the patent office examining patent applications. Einstein worked at the patent office for the next seven years. He enjoyed the work because of the diversity of applications he reviewed. Perhaps the greatest benefit of the job was that it allowed Einstein time to form his own unique scientific concepts away from academia. It was during his time at the patent office that he formed some of his most important scientific concepts.
