Once the Gordon Career Center has approved your employer registration request, you will be able to post and promote opportunities, manage your applicants, request virtual interview schedules, and more. Please contact us directly to let us know you have registered as an employer or created a posting so we can be sure to share your opportunity with interested students and alumni.

Once you complete the registration process, you will become a pending employer on Handshake. To be approved on Handshake, employer registration must include: 

• Verifiable organization name, location, and email and website addresses
• Organization size and industry
• Point of contact information including full name and email address that matches the domain of the organization’s website (generic names, such as “campus recruiter” will not be approved)
• Clear and completed organization description

The Gordon Career Center reviews all employer requests and job and internship postings to ensure that the organization and opportunity are appropriate for current students and/or recent graduates. We do not approve the following employers or postings: 

• Employers whose work or services are in direct conflict with Wesleyan’s mission
• Third-party recruiters, staffing agencies, or promoters
• Opportunities that require a fee for participation of placement, including out-of-pocket financial expenses, test-taking, etc. 
• Unspecified opportunities to teach abroad
• Commission-based positions that do not clearly note the compensation arrangements
• Personal service-oriented jobs such as babysitting, nannying, dog walking, etc.

The Gordon Career Center reserves the right to decline any employer request and job or internship posting. It may take up to five business days for your employer registration and/or posting to be reviewed by a member of our team. We encourage alumni to alert us to new listings.

First we want to thank you for thinking of Wesleyan and supporting the next generation of Cardinals. Our office is excited to help you promote your opportunity to our student body and help you collect applications. Please contact us for more information and to get started.

Information on testing practices used as part of the hiring process should be shared with the Gordon Career Centers. All tests used as part of the hiring process must be a valid measure of employability and must be compliant with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) standards, and testing procedures must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Employer partners must notify students of testing at least two full days in advance, so that students who require accommodations may make arrangements.
