Employers
Career Services is eager to help employers hire our students and recent graduates from Troy University. Please review the following information for ways to network with our students and begin recruiting.
Job and Internship Postings
Handshake is TROY's career management system and job posting network. Employers may create a free account to post jobs and internships for all TROY students to see and apply. Students on all TROY campuses and online have a Handshake account to which they can upload their resume for employers to view. Employers may also schedule on-campus interviews with students by requesting a day and time through Handshake.
The first step is to request an account by clicking on the Handshake logo above. Upon
approval of your Handshake account, you are able to advertise any open job or internship
opportunities to all TROY students. Once inside your Handshake account, you may post
a job by choosing “Create Job Posting” on your Handshake homepage.
Cooperative Education (Co-op)
Cooperative Education is an academic program in which students alternate periods of
full-time study with periods of full-time employment. Cooperative education opportunities
are often found in engineering fields, but other industries may offer them as well.
At TROY we work with employers who offer CO-OP positions in business concentrations
and communication, among others. Co-op interview days are held in the fall and spring
semesters. Registration is available in Handshake under the Fairs tab for Troy University.
On-Campus Recruiting
To schedule a date to visit campus to conduct an informational session about your company or to host a networking mixer, click on “Request New Information Session” on your Handshake homepage.
On-Campus Interviewing
If you would like the convenience of interviewing multiple students on campus, take
advantage of our interview room availability. To schedule click on “Create an Interview”
on your Handshake homepage. After your date is approved, please be sure to attach
the job description. Interested students will then be able to submit their resumes
for your review. You will then have the ability to select the students you would like
to interview.
Career Fairs
A variety of Career Fairs are held each semester on various TROY campuses. Registration
is available on your Handshake homepage under “Attend Events.”
Sponsorships
If your company is interested in becoming a sponsor of the Career Center, please contact Lauren Cole.
