Welcome to Our Newly Admitted Students!
Main content start
We are looking forward to supporting you throughout your career journey. A common question that new students have is how to connect with employers. One great way to learn about employers and opportunities is Handshake.
Handshake is our career platform for jobs and internships, career events, and appointments with career coaches. Your Stanford Handshake account will be activated two weeks prior to the first day of classes on September 8, 2025. Once you log into your Handshake account, you will have full access to these services.
Until September 8, please consult the following webpages for resources you can use in the meantime:
- CareerEd General Resources
- Frosh/Soph Coaching and Resources
- Humanities & Sciences Coaching and Resources
- Engineering & Sustainability Coaching and Resources
- PhD/Postdocs Coaching and Resources
Again, welcome to Stanford!
