Handshake How-To Resources

Handshake is Wesleyan’s online career management platform and job board for undergraduates, graduates, and alumni. It provides campus employers with the tools to advertise campus job opportunities, identify and communicate with potential candidates, and collect and review application materials. All Wesleyan students have a Handshake account and job postings are accessible to all students.

All on-campus student positions must be posted on Handshake. Postings are reviewed by the Gordon Career Center before they are made public for student view. We make every effort to review and approve new postings within 3-5 business days. If you need to expedite the approval process, email campusemployment@wesleyan.edu.
