Download Student Resumes and Schedule Interviews
If you allow students to apply for jobs and internships through Handshake, don’t forget to follow up! Be sure to review their applications, resumes, and notify them if you’d like to schedule an interview or if they have not been selected for the position. As you develop your trust score on Handshake - a tool that rates employers based on profiles completeness, valid web address, and interactions with institutions - you will be able to search and filter for students based on desired qualifications, majors, and skills.
