Whether you鈥檙e looking for an internship/co-op, on campus job, or full-time opportunity, , powered by Handshake, is the best place to start. The system can even help you with your search, connecting you with employers and opportunities you鈥檇 be interested in with just a few simple steps and profile modifications. Here鈥檚 how:
Update your Charger Path Profile
The more relevant information you鈥檝e completed on your profile, the more relevant recommendations you鈥檒l receive. This information not only helps the system to generate job suggestions for you, but it can also help employers find you.
Start by updating your Interest Section to include the type of positions you鈥檙e looking for (internships, co-ops, etc), the cities you鈥檇 like to work in, and the roles that interest you. If you鈥檙e not sure where to start, check out the on Handshake鈥檚 Blog to explore careers.
Once you鈥檝e built out your interest section, continue completing your profile to increase your visibility---the more information you share, the more likely it is that employers will reach out to you (and remember to check your messages!) Courses, Skills, Work Experience and Projects are all helpful sections to complete on your profile.
Consider updating your Profile as often as you鈥檇 update your resume or LinkedIn Profile. Add new skills, courses and experiences as you gain them to make sure employers have an accurate insight into your current background and skills.
