Key point

Salesforce will hire 1,000 new employees to strengthen its AI agent system, Agentforce.

Details

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff announced that the company will hire 1,000 'AI-native' new graduates and interns who will work primarily around Agentforce, the company's proprietary AI agent system.

To this end, Salesforce has launched a new 'Builder Program' as part of its university recruiting program. The program aims to quickly place recent graduates into engineering, product, and sales roles to strengthen AI agent-related capabilities.

Despite the recent contraction in the U.S. entry-level hiring market, which has declined 6% year-over-year, Salesforce has chosen to expand its investment in human resources in order to respond to the exponential growth of AI.
