If your school is using Handshake’s appointment feature, you can keep track of your upcoming appointments and reflect on past appointments in the appointments tab.
If you haven't yet scheduled an appointment, check out Request an Appointment with Your Career Center to start!
Follow the steps below to view your appointments in Handshake.
1. Click on Career Center on the left navigation menu, then click Appointments from your Career Center's page.
2. On this page, upcoming and past appointments are displayed along with their statuses.
- Requested: Your appointment is waiting for a response from the career services center; make sure to keep an eye out for an approved or declined status and notification.
- Started: Your appointment was marked as having begun but has not been closed out. You can followup with your advisor for more information.
- Approved: Your appointment was approved and is on schedule. If you need to cancel your appointment, make sure to update the status.
- Declined: Your appointment has been declined–you can reach out to the career center and request a new time or discuss the reason it was declined.
- Completed: Your appointment was completed, and you can review comments and activity in the appointment details section.
3. Click on the appointment name to open the details. If you have questions or follow up items, you can post them in the comments section.
Missing the Career Center option on the left navigation bar?
Here are a few possible reasons:
- School not linked: If you've requested to connect with a school, check your status by clicking your profile icon, then School Connections. If it says "Pending," your school still needs to approve your request.
- No school on account: If you registered without selecting a school, features like the Career Center won’t be available. To connect, click your profile icon, then School Connections. Find your school and request to join.
- School not on Handshake (yet!): If your school isn’t a partner, encourage your career center to join so you can access more features.
