Handshake for Employers

Hosting Employer Events Virtually

Thank you for your interest in UC Davis students. While concerns surrounding COVID-19 may have us sheltering in place, you can still connect with our students. They are eagerly searching for career and internship opportunities.

Although we have cancelled our Spring Internship and Career Fair, companies are strongly encouraged to list their open positions on Handshake. You can still use the preselect interview option in Handshake to list your positions, gather resumes and allow the students to choose their interview times. You can then host virtual interviews through Zoom and other available platforms.  

If your company had been planning to host an information session, submit your request with the Internship and Career Center through Handshake, and schedule it on Zoom or another virtual meeting platform of your choice.

In April 2019, Handshake replaced Aggie Job Link (AJL)

The ICC is confident that employers will find this innovative tool easier to use and more effective in connecting with UC Davis students and alumni. Employers can post job and internship listings, register for career fairs, manage on-campus recruiting, advertise their events, and message students and alumni who meet their qualifications all within an easy to use and more visually appealing platform.
