JobFAIR

The French Association of Young Bioinformaticians (JeBIF) is actively working to foster the professional integration of young members within the bioinformatics community. Since last year, with the support of the SFBI and the JOBIM local organizing committee, JeBIF has been organizing the JOBIM JobFair: an annual event where young bioinformaticians can meet with various professionals in a friendly atmosphere to identify their needs and the recruitment processes within their organizations.

From its very first edition, the JobFair was a huge success: around fifty young bioinformaticians had the opportunity to meet with twenty different professionals, representing a total of ten organizations.

"Putting faces to real-world professions also helps reassure a generation increasingly worried about their employability, and sometimes anxious about the specter of being replaced by AGIs."
- Bastien Chassagnol, JeBIF organizer

"Thanks to your extensive feedback on the strengths and areas for improvement of the first edition, JeBIF and the SFBI have worked together to best prepare this second edition. Among the most notable changes, it will now be possible to register for the JobFair directly through the JOBIM registration form. Some surprises are also in store to thank all the professionals volunteering their time for this event. We look forward to seeing many of you there!

They stepped up last year!
