This article explains how Career Services users can manually add an existing Handshake employer user to an on-campus employer account.
To add a staff member who is currently pending approval to join the on-campus employer account, refer to On-Campus Employers: Connect Pending Staff to an OCE Account.
What permission do I need to manually add staff to an on-campus employer account?
Your Career Services account must have the Manage permission for Employers. This permission appears under Roles > Show Permissions, in the Postings section.
What requirements must the user meet before I add them?
- The user must have an existing employer user account in Handshake.
- The user must not be connected to another company profile. If they are, they must disconnect from that profile before they can be added. Refer the user to Leaving a Company in Handshake.
- The user’s email domain must match the employer’s domain. If it does not, an error will appear and the user will not be added. If you need to add a user whose email domain does not match, contact Support.
- If the user only has a student account, send an invitation instead of using Add existing user by email. For instructions, refer to On-Campus Employers: Invite Staff to Join an OCE Account.
