In an innovative move that promises to redefine the way our students and alumni connect with potential employers, South Louisiana Community College (SLCC) proudly introduces Handshake, a cutting-edge platform designed to elevate your career prospects and open doors to a world of opportunities. Handshake, already trusted by over 500 schools nationwide, is set to revolutionize the way we approach campus recruiting and job placement.

"We are thrilled to introduce Handshake to our growing SLCC community," says Toni Celestine, Director of Career and Testing Services. "This platform will connect our students and alumni with a multitude of local and national companies, creating a unique opportunity for direct recruitment. Our students' exposure to these diverse employers will not only accelerate their career growth but also enrich the business landscape of our region."

To get started on Handshake, all students have to do is activate their accounts. After activation, students must upload their resumes, a crucial step that showcases their skills and experience to potential employers. The Career Services team has streamlined the process and is standing by to offer any assistance as necessary, including helping students craft the perfect resume for their Handshake profile. This profile will stay with students throughout their education and employment journey making the transfer to a 4 year university or a future job seamless and easy.

As we embark on this exciting new chapter with Handshake, SLCC is poised to unlock unprecedented avenues of growth and collaboration. We encourage all our students and esteemed alumni to activate their Handshake accounts today and embrace a world of boundless opportunities that await.
