Reminder: Bruin Careers to be replaced by Handshake
The IDEA Center is introducing a great new tool that will help make your student worker recruiting efforts easier, faster and more effective. Handshake is replacing Bruin Careers, offering a high-tech/high-touch tool for students seeking jobs and internships.
Create your profile now to put your on-campus job opportunities front and center. Check out the Handshake Help Center to learn how to post a job and reach out to students directly. All students will be re-routed to the new system starting on Aug. 8.
New features that were not available in Bruin Careers:
- Mobile app for students and employers (find on App Store under “Handshake Mobile”)
- Increased student personalization and engagement (think of a personalized Pinterest board where opportunities shown match a student’s major, skills and interests)
- Easy identification of well-qualified students for your hiring needs
Kaitlyn Ragan will deliver a training at the on-campus supervisor meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 3, at 9 a.m. in Lemmons 8. This will be a great time to learn how to use and maximize this tool in your department.
We encourage you to take this opportunity to rework your current job descriptions, keeping in mind to be creative and “sell” your position in order to catch the attention of our George Fox millennials. The IDEA Center can provide a copy of your previous Bruin Career postings if you don’t have them on file, as well as answer any questions about this transition.
