Redesigned campaign and segment list pages [Launched: June 28, 2024]

Lever ATS integration [Pilot launch: July 9, 2024]

We launched a pilot of our integration with the ATS platform Lever, which will enable teams to automate key recruiting workflows in Handshake, like posting jobs and candidate attribution. In the coming weeks, we're launching integrations with more ATS platforms as well.

Handshake Events - video provider [Launched: July 15, 2024]

We now partner with the video platform Daily to power virtual events on Handshake. With this change, virtual group sessions can now accommodate 75 attendees. Attendees can also take advantage of additional features like picture in picture, video pinning, virtual and custom backgrounds, downloadable chat, and emojis and reactions.

Brand Pages [Rollout began: July 17, 2024]

A redesigned company Brand Page helps your team deliver a tailored narrative that illuminates your company's culture, values, people, and opportunities to interested early talent on a career platform they trust. Investing in your Brand Page helps you elevate your brand presence, attract top talent to follow your company, and highlight relevant jobs, events, and content. The new Brand Page will roll out to all employers in the coming days.

Dynamic campaign targeting [Beta launch: July 17, 2024]

Dynamic targeting helps your campaign reach the right talent with the right message at the right time with an AI-powered assist from Handshake. Campaigns are sent to a small audience of highly relevant candidates first, before being sent to more candidates over subsequent days. This allows Handshake to optimize your audience, ensuring your message lands with candidates. Dynamic targeting will be available for all employer partners in the coming weeks.

Candidate language proficiency filters [Launched: July 18, 2024]

Segments and Talent List now allow you to filter candidates by language proficiency.

Flexible 1:1 and group session lengths [Launched: July 18, 2024]

Schools hosting virtual fairs can now enable a variety of session lengths for 1:1 and group sessions. If you're attending a virtual fair this fall and interested in changing session durations, reach out to the host school!

Edit permissions for schools [Launched: July 18, 2024]

Your team can now grant schools that you’re partnered with permissions to create and edit job postings and/or edit your company profile on your behalf.

Redesigned candidate list pages for events and fairs [Launched: July 19, 2024]

We redesigned the candidate list page within events and fairs to make it easier to follow up with candidates you met. In addition to a modern new look, the page now allows employers with Handshake Events to filter for candidates based on evaluations, and more intuitively understand their status (ie: RSVP’ed, Checked-in, Evaluated).
