Virtual session options
Sign up in advance for sessions with recruiters you want to meet.
1:1 sessions
Chat directly with a recruiter in this mini job/internship interview, where you have 10-minutes to show why you can do the job or internship better than the rest. Showing up on time and being confident will make a great first impression of how professional you are.
To participate in 1:1 sessions, you'll need to set your Bullseye powered by Handshake profile visibility to Employers.
Group sessions
Join a 30-minute session with other students where recruiters will share information about their company and answer your questions live.
To participate in a group session, you'll need to set Bullseye powered by Handshake profile visibility to Community. This option will give you access to Peer Messaging! Choosing Community will make you visible to other students and alumni across all Handshake schools, as well as to employers approved at UB.
