The Events page enables you to view and manage upcoming events hosted by your employer. It displays key information for each event, including the event name, scheduled date, and current status.
Who can create or manage events based on my account type?
-
Basic employers: Owners and Recruiters can create and manage only the events they have personally created. Events created by other teammates will appear on your list but are view-only.
- To manage events created by teammates, you must upgrade to an eligible paid plan.
- On-campus employers, Plus, Pro, Essentials and Enterprise (formerly TES) customers: All users, except Representatives, can create and manage events created by themselves or by teammates, provided they have the appropriate permissions.
Features available to Essentials and Enterprise (formerly TES) customers only are indicated by an asterisk (*). For more information, please check out this resource.
Why can't I view or manage events?
If the Events option isn’t available in the left navigation bar or you're unable to view or manage events, it may be due to your current role or permissions.
- Review your access in A Guide to Employer Role Types in Handshake.
- To view or manage events, you must request the appropriate role or permissions from your company’s Owner or Admin.
- Not sure who that is? Refer to Who is the Owner of My Company’s Profile?.
- If the owner is no longer active, contact Support.

What happens when a school adds me to an event?
A school's career services team can add you as a host or attendee for an event they create.
When this happens:
- The event appears on your Events page alongside events your own company created.
- You will receive an email confirming the event name, date, time, and location once you're added.
- If a student signs up for a time slot you're hosting, you will receive an email with the student's name and the scheduled time so you can prepare.
If you have questions about an event a school added you to, reach out to the contact listed in the event confirmation email, since the school's career services team manages the event setup and schedule.
