About this listen
Higher ed is at a crossroads. Career services teams are no longer gatekeepers of opportunity—they’re becoming curators of the student-employer relationship. But how do institutions actually make that shift?
In this episode, I sit down with Christine Y. Cruzvergara, Chief Education Strategy Officer at Handshake, to unpack:
🎯 The biggest mindset shift career services teams must make (or risk falling behind)
📊 How AI & data-driven personalization are transforming student job searches
🔗 Why curated job collections drive 7x more engagement—and how to leverage them
⚖️ The tension between mission-driven work and financial sustainability in career services
If you’re a higher ed leader, career services professional, or employer relations expert, this episode is packed with insights on the future of work, education, and workforce development.
