Handshake
First, you'll want to create an account with Handshake. Once you've created your account, you'll need to create an employer profile for your company. Finally, when your user account and employer profile are created, you should request a connection with Tennessee Tech University and any other schools you're interested in recruiting with. For detailed instructions on each part of this process, please check out this helpful article.
After completing the steps above, our Center for Career Development staff will review your connection request with Tennessee Tech University. If approved, you can post jobs, request employer hosted events, reserve on campus interview, and register for career fairs.
