Hiring UARK students is a great way to support their career-readiness while achieving your department's goals. Use our resources to hire your next hog!
Advertise a Job
All student employment opportunities should be highlighted in Handshake, UARK's student career platform.
How the job is posted on Handshake depends on how you recruit/collect applications.
- Option 1: Recruiting via Workday
- If you recruit students by posting the position on Workday and collecting applications on Workday then the Central HR recruitment team will highlight your position on Handshake so your position can be easily discovered by students. Students will be directed to apply on Workday, and you will review applications on Workday. Hiring managers do not need a Handshake account for this hiring method.
- Option 2: Recruiting via Handshake
- If you recruit students outside of Workday and then use the evergreen application after the candidate is selected, you will need a Handshake account to advertise your position and collect applications. Handshake does not replace the Workday onboarding process; it is a recruitment tool for evergreen positions. Stay in contact with your HR partner during this process.
