Handshake is your safe all-in-one platform to:

  • Find and apply to local, out-of-state, and international jobs and internships

  • Find and register for employer events happening all over the world

Handshake also allows you to build a personal profile, adjust privacy settings, create job search filters and set automatic email alerts for new job and internship opportunities.
