Handshake’s annual Early Talent Awards programme celebrates the best employers for Gen Z careers.
Gen Z are predicted to make up 27 percent of the workforce by 2025, so there’s no denying how critical it is to attract quality Gen Z candidates. This can be challenging if you aren’t tailoring your brand to their interests.
Over the last few years organisations have increasingly focused on ensuring that their workforces are reflective of a diverse society. This means not only hiring a diverse range of people, but making sure employees feel comfortable to be themselves at work; that there is opportunity for growth and development within the organisation and that company recruitment policies are up to the task.

Handshake is launching Employer Tags to help our partners easily identify employers your team may want to review for moral, ethical or legal reasons – to save your team time while still maintaining your expert control over approvals.
There ain’t no party like a RecFest party! Our feet are tired and voices hoarse after several days of walking the Knebworth fields and talking with so many people, but it’s fair to say that the Handshake team had a great time at RecFest 2022.
We're making it easier for our partnering institutions to curate employer collections hand-picked by you, improve relevance to student needs, and add an extra layer of trust from your expert recommendations
On Tuesday 28th June, Handshake and Accenture will take to the stage at the ISE Student Recruitment Conference 2022 - discussing routes to ensuring inclusion and diversity in graduate recruitment today.
Here at Handshake, we often hear similar assumptions when we first speak to universities about bringing new tech on board. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
In our latest study, 98 percent of today’s careers professionals reported that they are worried about students either not engaging with career development activities as early as they should, or not using the full range of university support available to them. Universities up and down the country offer plenty of advice, support and access to opportunities - but the challenge, say careers professionals, is to get students to understand how they can benefit from fully engaging these services, from the very beginning of their studies. We believe that there’s an answer to be had.
Announcing our support for RecFest, the inspiring and immersive festival event for everyone working in Talent Acquisition.
The team at Handshake is delighted to announce that its collaboration with the Institute of Student Employers (ISE) is continuing for a second year.
Integrating Gen Z into the world of work - how to build a productive multi-generational workforce
Handshake announces a strategic partnership with the Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI) in the UK.
Whenever a new generation enters the workforce, employers are faced with all sorts of new recruiting challenges. And Generation Z (Gen Z), which will account for more than a quarter of the global workforce by 2030, is no exception.
Here at Handshake, we’ve seen first hand the amount of work, thought and resource that careers services teams have put into not only keeping student and graduate provision going in the height of the pandemic, but to ensure that an increasingly hybrid model sees us out of the end stages too.
