All BNU students and alumni are encouraged to use Handshake, an innovative career portal through which you can make use of the Career Success Service and develop your career and network. The Career Success Service has joined this platform to make working with us easier, quicker and even more effective.

Available as a mobile app, you can book appointments, browse and apply for jobs, placements and internships, register for career events, fairs and workshops and access career resources on the go.

Build a profile and then receive information and job opportunities based on your subject and interests from Handshake. 

As it is an online community you can create a profile, network and discover new opportunities, learn more about industries and job roles to see if they are right for you; get an inside look at employers with candidate reviews; message other users with your questions.
