Everyone’s writing “Agentforce experience required.” Almost nobody knows how to interview for it.

I’ve been talking to hiring managers who know they need someone who understands Agentforce but aren’t sure what that actually means in a candidate. The certifications haven’t fully caught up. There are very few experienced Agentforce implementors, and they’re not answering job postings.

What I’m watching is a gap between what companies put in a job description and what they’re equipped to evaluate in an interview. You can ask a candidate about agent design and trust layers, but if nobody in the room has built it, you’re mostly taking their word for it.

This is where a recruiter who actually understands the platform earns their fee.

What I’m seeing in practice is that Agentforce implementations require fluency across AI, process design, and code — often in the same person. That’s a rare combination, and it’s not something you can screen for by reading a resume.

If you’re trying to figure out what the right Salesforce hire looks like in an Agentforce world, I’m happy to think through it with you.
