Creating an Employer Company Profile

At our fairs, youll be able to engage with students in a variety of formats, including:
- Video, audio and chat communication with students
- 30-minute group meetings with multiple students
- 10-minute one-on-one meetings with one student and one employer representative

EXPANDING SESSION QUALIFICATIONS (accepted majors and school years): If you are concerned that not enough students are signing up for your sessions, you may want to check the parameters, not only on your employer registration, but on the 1:1 sessions you set up. Even if your registration indicates you will accept candidates from all years and majors, Handshake will not allow student users to see your sessions if the individual session qualifications exclude their school year and/or major. If you are open to speaking with a wider variety of candidates, you will want to edit your parameters to include more or all school years and majors.
- Please note the checkbox on the edit page under "Looking For" to "Accept all majors."
LAST MINUTE SIGN-UPS DAY OF FAIR: Students have the ability to register for 1:1 sessions up to a minute before the session start time. Frequently refresh your screen during the fair to ensure you don't miss any last minute sign-ups.
VIDEO REQUIREMENTS: Please take a moment to check that your technology is in line with , in order to avoid any issues during the fair that could cut into your time with candidates. You will especially want to make sure that your company's firewall does not block Handshake's video platform.
