Employer Services
Looking to recruit a diverse pool of talent for internship or professional/full-time positions? Let the University Career Center assist you in planning, scheduling, and promoting your recruitment events.
We can assist you with informing candidates, managing your interview schedule(s), coordinating your interviews (in person or virtual), and hosting you on the University campus.
Handshake
We have transitioned from Job Mine to Handshake! Handshake is a technology platform that connects college students and young professionals with potential employers, primarily for internships and entry-level job opportunities. It provides a platform for students to create profiles, search and apply for job openings, and connect with employers. Employers can use Handshake to post job openings, review applicant profiles, and connect with potential candidates. If you want to get started today, create your Handshake account here.
Creating Your Account:
Once you create a company page, it will undergo an approval process with Handshake. When approved, search for “University of Texas at El Paso” to connect with us and have access to post jobs and participate in other engagement opportunities.
Handshake Support:
