Handshake is the portal through which ºÚÁÏÉçÇø ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs and alumni seeking employment can connect to employers with employment opportunities. Use of Handshake is strictly limited to career-related activities; under no circumstances is the information submitted by ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs, alumni, and employers to be used for any purpose other than job/applicant seeking activities. Violation of this exclusive use policy will result in removal from the system.

Users should notify the Center immediately of any inappropriate use of Handshake, facilities, or University resources. All users shall respect the privacy rights of other users consistent with applicable law, policies, and professional standards.

The Center reserves the right to deny a company posting and campus recruiting for false or misleading actions, incomplete information, and/or are unable to demonstrate that they provide a bona fide internship experience for ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs at a level consistent with University expectations.

In order to give ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs enough time to make an informed and thoughtful decision(s), and in accordance with the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), employers recruiting at ºÚÁÏÉçÇø are expected to adhere to the following timelines for all job and internship offers.

• Converting Internships to full-time positions – Offer to remain open until October 15 or 3 weeks from receipt of written offer, whichever is longer.
• Full-time or Internship offers during Fall Recruiting – Offer to remain open until October 31 or 3 weeks from receipt of written offer, whichever is longer.
• Full-time or Internship offers during Spring Recruiting – Offer to remain open until February 28 or 3 weeks from receipt of written offer, whichever is longer.

In some cases, ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs may request for extensions beyond these deadlines; we ask that organizations accommodate these requests, if possible. We recommend that all employers extend offers in writing and strongly encourage all ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs to accept or decline in writing.

ºÚÁÏÉçÇø does not allow the use of exploding offers. An “exploding offer” is one that requires a decision in conflict with the timing mentioned above or offers incentives to induce ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs to accept offers early, such as diminishing bonuses and location preferences.

We consider a rescinding a job offer a rare and uncommon occurrence. If an employer must rescind an offer, please contact the ºÚÁÏÉçÇø and Center immediately so we may assist the ºÚÁÏÉçÇø. Employers who rescind offers may be subject to suspension from recruiting at Miami for one semester or longer. Employers should carefully review the guidelines and follow the NACE recommendations issued in 2002 in their Position Statement on Rescinded and Deferred Employment Offers.

The Center for Career Exploration and Success reserves the right to refuse the opportunity to place postings or engage in campus recruiting to employers for actions or conduct the Center deems that harm or have the potential to harm ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs, alumni, the Center for Career Exploration & Success, and/or University; including, without limitation, the following: dishonesty; discrimination; breach of confidentiality; reneging on established agreements between the Center for Career Exploration & Success and the employer (verbal or written); reneging on a job offer to a ºÚÁÏÉçÇø or alumni; fraud; failure to pay for billed services; misrepresentation; harassment of ºÚÁÏÉçÇø ºÚÁÏÉçÇøs, alumni, staff or faculty; failure to adhere to the Center for Career Exploration & Success policies.
