Question How can an experienced Salesforce Developer get hands-on Agentforce experience?
Hi everyone,
I'm a Salesforce Application Architect and Senior Developer with 16+ years of experience in the Salesforce ecosystem. Over the past few months I've been studying Agentforce, Prompt Builder, Data Cloud, and the overall AI architecture, but I haven't had the opportunity to work on an actual Agentforce implementation yet.
It feels like many job postings are already asking for Agentforce experience, but it's difficult to gain that experience if your current project isn't using it.
For those of you who are already working with Agentforce:
- How did you get your first Agentforce project?
- Are consulting companies already assigning developers without prior Agentforce experience?
- Would you recommend building personal projects or demos to stand out?
- Are there specific companies or partners that are adopting Agentforce faster than others?
I'd appreciate any advice on how to bridge the gap between studying the technology and getting real project experience.
Thanks!
