The ICMC 2024 co-chairs Santosh Patra and Mayank Kumar said that the concept of a career fair for doctoral students and scholars is common in the USA and Europe. “It is a relatively new concept for India. Through this fair, we aim to give our conference scholars and leading institutes an opportunity to meet and create learning paths for each other. The job fair will play an instrumental role in removing barriers and exploring possibilities on both sides,” Patra added.

Kousik Mandal, presenter at ICMC 2024, said, "At ICMC '24, the career fair is a dynamic platform for young researchers to connect aspiring professionals with academic leaders. As a participant, I'm thrilled to engage with top-tier institutions around India, gaining insights and networking opportunities."
