Handshake is packed with career-boosting content like jobs, events, employers, and fairs. With an integration, that content can shine on your uConnect platform, right alongside your other great resources. By making your Handshake content public-facing, you increase visibility for: ✅ Prospective students exploring career paths ✅ Parents curious about opportunities ✅ Faculty recommending events and internships ✅ And of course—students, alumni, and employers All of this with **less manual work for you** and **a smoother experience for your users**. ## A quick note before we dive in... The Handshake integration is a **paid feature**. If you’re interested in adding it to your platform, contact your Customer Success Manager to learn more. # Here's how it works The integration uses **Handshake RSS feeds** to pull content into uConnect. You can: - Create one general feed for jobs or events, *or* - Get fancy with multiple feeds by industry or type **Feeds sync daily** at 6:00 a.m., bringing in: - Title - Description - Link - Start/end dates If anything changes in Handshake, your uConnect content will update automatically. No extra steps needed. ## Want your content smartly sorted? We can tag imported content to specific communities automatically. For example: Finance jobs → Finance community. STEM events → STEM community. It’s instant, organized, and ready to go. ![](https://support.gouconnect.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Handshake+Visual-2.png) - ## Choose your publishing workflow You’ve got two options: - ## Option 1: Send to ‘Pending’ New content lands in your **Pending** queue (Jobs, Events, Employers). From there, you can: - Review and approve - Edit titles/descriptions - Filter by pre-tagged communities for quick sorting Perfect if you want control over what goes live. - ## Option 2: Auto-publish New content is instantly published on your public site—no review required. You can still edit published content anytime. Ideal for small teams or anyone who loves automation. ![](https://support.gouconnect.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Handshake+Automated+Visual-2.png) ## Next steps Ready to bring Handshake content front and center?
