Description
Been using Handshake Jobs & New Careers for a couple months now. It’s basically a career-focused social network where you can search for jobs, build your profile, and connect with other people in your industry. Pretty solid app if you’re looking to start or restart your career.
Here’s what you do: you can browse through personalized job recommendations, apply for openings, and even message people at companies you’re interested in. There’s also a bunch of career advice posts and videos from people who’ve been there, which is pretty cool. And you can join groups and events related to your career goals – took me a while to figure that out but it’s useful.
Look, if you’re job hunting or exploring new career paths, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the app can be a bit buggy sometimes – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Handshake Jobs & New Careers. I've tested a bunch of job search and career apps and this one's pretty solid. The personalized recommendations are on point and I like how you can connect with people already working in your target field. The advice content is also really helpful, especially for folks just starting out. The app does have some issues though - I've found it can be a bit glitchy at times and the job postings aren't always up-to-date. But overall, it's a pretty useful tool if you're serious about leveling up your career.
