At Handshake Access and again in a webinar in July, we discussed how Handshake is seeking to expand access to relevant opportunities for your students while balancing student trust and employer access. Right now, our education partners play a time-intensive role in maintaining that balance via the approvals process. Based on conversations with schools and employers over the past year, we’ve identified opportunities to make employer and job approvals more nuanced, transparent, and safe.
If you missed these presentations (or if you'd like to review the content again) watch this encore webinar! We review our plans to enhance approvals via updates to decline reasons, flagging, and the Trust Score, as well as discuss the benefits and implications for schools, employers, and students.
