Employers can cancel or request deletion of an event on Handshake. Cancellation options depend on whether students have RSVP’d; deletion options depend on the event format.
Cancel an event with RSVPs
Events with RSVPs cannot be edited. To cancel:
1. Notify registered students that the event is canceled. Refer to Messaging Event and Fair RSVPs.
2. Contact Support.
Already notified students? Contact our Support team. Notifying students does not cancel the event.
Cancel an event without RSVPs
Move the event into the past to remove it from upcoming events:
1. Click Events in the left navigation, then select the event.
Tip: To filter out past events, click Include past events and uncheck the box.
2. Click the More options (three-dot icon), then select Edit event.
3. Under Date and Time:
- Set the start date and time to a point in the past, such as yesterday.
