How to Post a Job to Additional Schools

Tawnya
  • Updated

Job postings can be posted to additional schools in Handshake at any time, regardless of posting status. 

If the posting is saved and not yet posted, refer to How do I post a 'not posted' job to a school?.

Features available only to Premium partners are indicated by an asterisk (*). For more information, please check out this resource.

How to add more schools depends on both the posting details and your approval (or connection) status with the desired school. Jobs cannot be posted to additional schools if: 
  • The job's opening date is within the past year, but the closing date is over a year after the opening date.
    • To post the job to more schools, update the close date to be within 365 days of the open application date. 
    • Learn more about Updating Job Posting Dates.
  • The job's opening date is over a year ago, while the closing date is more than a year after the opening date
