We currently provide several ways to that community members can post job and internship opportunities for current BC students. If you have questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out to Madeleine Martin, Assistant Director of Career Development & Technology at mmartin@bridgewater.edu .
- Online: Posting a job or internship on Handshake, our online job portal for students, is the best way to maximize its exposure to BC students.
- Creating Your Handshake Account: Detailed instructions for creating your account, with screenshots, are available here: How to Create a Handshake User Account.
- Posting a Job/Internship on Handshake: Instructions on how to post an opportunity are here .
- *If your organization already has a Handshake account, then you simply need to add Bridgewater College as an approved school in order to post your position so it will be seen by our students. Instructions on how to do this here and step #7 details how to connect and be approved by selected schools.
- Email Newsletter: We send out a monthly newsletter to current BC students and would be happy to feature the job/internship opportunity there. Full-time, part-time and internship opportunities are all welcome.
- If you are a Bridgewater alum, we encourage you to post job and internship opportunities on BridgewaterConnect, our student and alumni engagement platform. We encourage all recent grads to join the page and many of them log-in regularly to check out the job listings. You can find Bridgewater Connect here: https://bridgewaterconnect.com/ . Click on Jobs & Internships on the left menu, then click Post a Job.
