I was a member during college, in which i saw little benefit in being a member outside of appeasing a few of my instructors.
Once I graduated, I abandoned AIGA for a few years because my membership lapsed and I didn't want to pay for it.
I renewed my membership when I was looking for a new job, in which it became somewhat useful for the fact I was able to use their job board for searching and also went to a few events to do some networking.
However, the membership was not responsible for me landing my current gig. And, as my membership is again about to lapse, I will probably not renew it because I don't really take advantage of it.
Anyway, for me it has not been all that useful. I know for a few of my peers they are very into the whole AIGA thing and attend lots of events and participate and whatnot. But that's not really my style. But if it's yours, you might benefit from it.
