Some schools will host a mass interview day (or days) following an on-campus Career Fair. This article highlights our recommendations for managing this workflow in Handshake.
Under this setup, companies that attend a Career Fair on your campus can schedule students for interviews the next day. Typically they'll manage this through an external spreadsheet, and you can track in Handshake with Room-Only interview schedules.
However, if you have other thoughts or best practices that work best for your campus, we ask you to share in our Handshake Community! This is a place for you and your team to connect with other career centers to share best practices and learn from each other on how to make the most out of Handshake.
