A Note About Upcoming Changes to On-Campus Job Postings
Beginning on January 1, 2024, GVSU will be implementing the Workday system across campus which will replace Handshake as the destination to search for on-campus employment. Handshake will still be used to search for off-campus opportunities, internships, post-graduate employment, career advising appointments, employer connections, and more.
More information and training materials will be provided before the start of the winter semester. In the meantime, if you are interested in working on-campus, continue to visit Handshake.
