Leave a Review Handshake Jobs & New Careers
Some issues. Other parts work
For starters, saving jobs on the app and website is a huge problem. Sometimes you can’t unsave. When you apply to the job, it stays saved (and you can’t undo this sometimes). Saving is bugged
It would also be nice to view documents on mobile or even edit/change things. Basically, some features available on the website are still not on mobile
Other parts work fine just like the websiteShow lessAnonyviewerZ

There is no way to manage what emails you get sent and you can only unsubscribe from specific things when they get sent to you. When I tried to searching how to block emails it would only tell me how to resubscribe. Yes to apply to jobs this app is fully capable, but it’s manipulative/dark UX and just annoying to not allow the user to change those settings. I have lost all respect for the company I previously had. I expect this from scams and cheap money grab apps not a service used by universities and businesses.Show lessAmbientGibberish

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I have submitted your feedback to our product team for review. We appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback regarding our app.Needs to be a way to block direct messaging from recruiters
This app is basically a way for recruiters to meet their quotas by spamming a bunch of people with jobs that are irrelevant to them. I receive at least two messages a day from out of state recruiters encouraging me to apply to jobs that have nothing to do with my degree. I did enjoy browsing the job postings and sometimes it is a great way to talk with someone directly from a company but I got spammed way more than what it's worth. Also, started getting logged out every single time I closed the app. I get redirected through my school login to get back into the app which is a hassle.Show lesschellllll27

Hi, Thank you for leaving a review. We’d like to look further into this for you, and will need to collect some additional details from you. Please submit a ticket here: Submit a request – Handshake Help Center (https://support.joinhandshake.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) and include the phrase “App Review” when describing the issue. We look forward to assisting you!Unusable app
Not sure why this has so many food reviews, I had a lot of difficulties signing up for an account through the app. I contacted support for help because it would not let me register my email with my school. Support suggested I try signing up on the website but that produced the same results. What did work was signing up with a different college that had the same email domain as mine. I still had to contact support again to change my college to the correct one since that cannot be done by the user.
To top it all off, I tried to go back into the app to login to my now made account but there is no option to log in, just create a new account lol. This app has a lot of fixes that need to be made.Show lessAnal 5hipment

I would like a way to view all the documents I’ve uploaded to Handshake. There is already a way to do this on the website (by going to your account icon and clicking My Documents), so please include a way to do this on the mobile app as well. Would be 5 stars otherwise!bckjsajk
Handshake is great except
I really love this app and I’ve had it for about two weeks now, however my complaint is I am unable to add documents to the app as somebody who is blind. I use this app with voiceover on an iPhone 13 and I’m seeing a glitch where it’s not allowing me to edit my résumé to apply for on-campus jobs of handshake and if you could fix that and a future update that would be greatly appreciated so I could use this app to my advantage thank you. I can’t even report a problem with the link you sent me via email because it just gives me articles that are not even helpfulShow lessCaroline Carbaugh

Save time filling out individual applications with the usage of this app. Instant connection to great opportunities at a touch of a fingertip. I have benefitted greatly from using this app. Try it out if you haven’t!kbbjewels
Great concept and communication but no follow through
I really enjoy the different aspects of the app however I find when messaging one on one with employers or talent acquisition managers that I can’t click in the chat the links that you’re trying to send to me it always sends a message saying there’s an error and to try again and every time I do it repeats the same message. Then end up having to ask the employer or the person I’m talking to on chat to send me the link separately.Show lessMadster.is.here
Awesome!
This is one of the best job sites that I have ever visited. The fact that it is linked to my school makes it even more valuable and important to students like me who are looking for a career in their field. All I can say is “AWESOME”!Pastor Tracy Prater
Stop logging us out
For the most part I absolutely love this platform. But the fact that it logs me out pretty much every single time without me asking is getting really annoying. It really hurts usability when I just wanna go check a message and I have to go through my entire university’s SSO. This is a problem both on the web app and the actual app. Just leave me logged in like LinkedIn I don’t think there’s data private enough to warrant logging me out each time and if there is then use Face ID.Show lessCharlie 7586
