Handshake Terms

As a user of this site:

I agree to provide accurate and truthful information about my qualifications and educational background in my online profile, my resume, and any supplemental job-search documents I upload to the system.

I will ensure my profile information is up to date, including my email address, major, class year and graduation date. If this information is not accurate, I will contact CalCentral to request revisions. Note: Grad Date can be edited by users directly.

I authorize the Career Center to release my resume to employers I have selected via Handshake and On-Campus Recruiting (OCR).

If participating in On-Campus Recruiting (OCR), I agree to abide by all OCR policies and guidelines.

I am responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of my login information and password. I am responsible for all uses of my account, whether or not authorized by me. If others use my password to access job listings or to post inappropriate material on the site, I risk losing my access to the site. I agree to notify the Career Center immediately of any unauthorized use of my Handshake account. Refer to Protecting Your Handshake Account.

I agree to the Terms and Conditions.
