Abstract

For the sixth year running, AAAI and ACM SIGAI jointly ran the popular AAAI/ACM SIGAI Job Fair. In lockstep with the growth of AAAI and the growth of the greater artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) community, our once-small job fair also grew. This year, thirty-eight companies and universities formally attended---typically with a booth, team of recruiters, swag, and other representatives---increasing from twenty-six companies during the job fair's previous run in 2019, and twenty-one companies in the year prior to that. Last year, we purchased a dedicated domain---https://aaaijobfair.com/---for the job fair. This year, we provided a link on that site through which job-seekers---students, postdocs, practitioners, and maybe even a few faculty---could upload their resumes or CVs. We then shared that data and contact information for slightly under four hundred job-seekers with participants on the other side: prospective employers.
