Last week, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff announced in a post on X that the company would hire 1,000 new graduates and interns “to ride the AI exponential.” Yesterday, the company released a statement committing to that plan. Salesforce has launched a new Builder Program within its university recruitment initiative to fast-track recent grads into engineering, product, and sales roles focused on Agentforce, its proprietary AI agent system. The company said it has hired more than 10,000 professionals through its university recruitment program to date. According to a recent LinkedIn report, entry-level hiring is down 6% year over year in the U.S. Some major CEOs bet that AI will cause job displacement and disrupt careers, especially for entry-level candidates. But Salesforce hopes to alleviate some of those bleak stats for new grads—at least when it comes to AI. submitted by /u/_fastcompany
