What's our recommendation if your department/lab etc. wants to post a postdoc or staff position on Handshake?
- Create an account on Handshake
- When given the option to either “join a company,” (e.g., an existing UCSF Handshake account) or "create a new company profile", select create a new company profile. Then add your own school, department, or lab as it's own 'company'. Several UCSF departments and labs have already created their own profiles.
To avoid confusion, we recommend using more than the UCSF name, e.g., UCSF Department of Neuroscience or UCSF Curie Lab. Doing so will help candidates looking for your post and allow your department/lab/etc. to post opportunities without needing approval each time in the future.
- To learn how to create a new company profile, or if you run into any issues, please refer to Handshake's page [How to Create a New Company Profile].
