Radio buttons are answering the questions, "Require students to apply through website or applicant tracking system?" and "Display your contact information to students?"](/career/sites/default/files/styles/max_width_480px/public/media/2020-05/handshake_campus_job_1.png?itok=pe6sarRq)

You must select “Yes” when asked if this is a work-study position. This is an important check box to allow work-study eligible students to find your position.
![The image shows the example of the radio button Work Study Job with the "Yes" option selected, because work study must always be identified when applicable.](/career/sites/default/files/styles/max_width_480px/public/media/2020-05/work_study_screenshot.png?itok=2GaRaFaD)
PLEASE NOTE: Career and Professional Success cannot store or share student work-study eligibility in Handshake. All student applicants will appear to “not meet preferences” because of this. We suggest requesting an additional document confirming work-study eligibility or confirming eligibility during the interview process.
