Virtual Career Fairs: What You Need to Know

Our virtual career fairs are hosted on Handshake, our career management platform. As an employer, you have full control over your schedule and can tailor your day to meet your recruitment goals. You can create both small group meetings and 1:1 sessions with students.

Upon registration, you’ll be prompted to create student sessions (meetings) with students.

  • Group Sessions: Host up to three 30-minute sessions, each accommodating up to 50 students in a single virtual room. You may use Handshake’s built-in video platform or your own.
  • 1:1 Sessions: Schedule 15-minute one-on-one meetings with students. Depending on the number of representatives who attend, you may configure a combination of individual and/or group sessions to best engage with students.

Important: Please create your sessions as early as possible. This gives students ample time to sign up for meeting slots with you. Please attach any jobs or internships you’re currently recruiting so students can review before the career fair.
