Overall Satisfaction with Handshake Talent Engagement Suite

We have used Handshake Talent Engagement Suite to connect with educational providers to meet and talk with students to get them to learn about our company and also apply as possible future new hires. This has given us the ability to build our pipeline for new hires and we use it to identify new talent. Additionally, this allows students to learn further about our company and the opportunities and jobs that we provide.
  • Great User Interface
  • Streamlines connection to possible new hires
  • Ease of Access
  • Increased opportunity to connect with students
  • Function to talk directly to candidate in application
  • Enhanced support features
  • Ability to add internal comments on prospective new hires
  • Ability to share certain job descriptions to select individuals
  • Ability to connect with prospective employees
  • Easily searchable database
  • Enhanced filtering to pinpoint attributes
  • Multitude of higher education institution using the platform
  • Faster time from identification to hire
  • More efficient scheduling for career fairs as we can use schedule on platform to streamline timing
  • Job posting time is lower as there can be a mass upload to multiple universities
  • Lower costs on hiring/retention as we can pinpoint who we think is best fit
I like Handshake Talent Engagement Suite much better than this platform as it is much easier to identify talent and find exactly what we are looking for to use as a repository for what we need and the time we need it in. We selected this because we needed to make new hires quickly and knew this platform would help. Many times individual universities had their own platform before Handshake Talent Engagement Suite and this allows us to see all the colleges in one particular application making it much easier.

Would you buy Handshake Talent Engagement Suite again?

Yes

This product is well suited if you are looking for new hires and need the ability to find and identify them very quickly and efficiently. This might be less appropriate for a company that is not hiring directly out of college and may not need the ability to find and identify talent immediately. We were looking for a certain amount of new hires that we needed to fit a specific skillset and by using Handshake Talent Engagement Suite we were able to target specific students with that skillset and get them interested in the position.
