This field has it all: Exploratory search, explicit relevance judgments, recall-oriented search, interactive information retrieval, iterative information retrieval, session-oriented information retrieval, collaborative information seeking, tight deadlines, sparse signals (no “freebie” web links and billions of clicks to help you out). It is a challenging, fun area.
