Handshake

Series E+ · SF Bay Area

Early-career hiring network and AI data

Handshake was founded on the belief that everyone deserves a path to a good career regardless of which school they attended or who they happen to know. It now connects 25 million job seekers, over a million employers and 1,600 educational institutions. In 2025 it started Handshake AI, working directly with frontier labs — an unusual second act, though one that follows from what the company already had: a large network of people whose expertise can be applied to training models.
