Handshake student product updates—August 14, 2026

Redesigned new user onboarding [Rollout began: Aug 13]

We've reduced the number of steps new users have to complete to onboard onto Handshake so it's easier to get started. We still ask for career interests, but removed prompts to download the mobile app and follow other users. We also now ask for a resume, which helps power job recommendations.

Revamped in-person career fair pages (iOS) [Rollout began: Aug 11]

Handshake's career fair experience on iOS has been redesigned so it's easier to navigate. Notably, the page now includes an "Add to calendar" button. It's live to 50% of students on iOS, with Android coming soon.
