Alumni Career Services
Need resume and cover letter assistance, career change guidance or the chance to network with employers? As an Alumni, you have access to the services and resources of the Career Center for Life Calling. Access to these services is done through Handshake, a career services platform with entry- and mid-level employment opportunities, professional development events, and scheduling access to the Ashland University career coaches.
Steps for Alumni to sign up for Handshake:
- Sign up for Handshake using your personal email account, not your old Ashland University email.
- After finishing the sign-up process on Handshake, your account will be verified by the CCLC and Alumni Engagement offices, and you will get an email notification that your account has been approved.
- Log in using your Handshake credentials to make appointments, network, and grow your career!
