Erikson is now on Handshake—an app that provides students, alumni, and employers the opportunity to connect. Handshake offers students and alumni the chance to view current openings at various agencies and organizations, speak with employers about potential employment, as well as attend career fairs (both virtual and in-person).
Current students: Your profile has been preloaded. You can sign in to Handshake using your Erikson single sign on credentials. You can then update your profile, add your resume and view as well as apply for open positions listed on the app. You can also sign up for career fairs that are listed.
Alumni: Alumni can also use Handshake after they create their Handshake account. Handshake will ask you to enter a ".edu" email address to create your account but you can enter your own personal email. After you create your account, request to connect with Erikson. We will then approve the connection giving you access to employers that share job opportunities with us.
If you have any questions or run into any problems while navigating Handshake, please reach out to careerservices@erikson.edu.
