Why should employers create Handshake accounts?

Each employer and their contacts needs to create an account in Handshake.  Doing this is very easy and only requires a few clicks.  Employers need to create their employer account because Handshake asks many questions about the organization on the company profile and a logo can be uploaded.  Secondly, we really want employers to use the new Handshake system.  Once approved to use Handshake, employers can:

  1. Self-post opportunities for no cost and have the option of selecting one or multiple colleges from the Handshake network list.  
  2. For the first time, employers can search for public student profiles and resumes in the Handshake system by major...no more resume books!  
  3. Handshake is very intuitive software and helps match student majors and job description information with student profiles in the system.  Please make sure job descriptions are detailed and list all the majors you seek for the role.  On the student side, Handshake helps match employer job postings to their profiles.
