Bring the right early talent candidates to your company with WayUp & Yello
We can prove it.

It’s a one stop shop that can help a team of 2 or 200 talent recruiters.

Hit Campus & Diversity Goals Faster with WayUp & Yello
With 7M+ qualified, diverse candidates in WayUp, you’ll be able to reach a more diverse group of candidates — at more schools — than in Handshake.
The vast majority of WayUp candidates self-report their race/ethnicity, gender, and more. That means it’s 100% OFCCP compliant to filter based on those attributes.
Handshake has students from 45% of schools in the US. What about the other 55%? WayUp will have you covered there.
WayUp’s virtual events are campus agnostic and are specifically built to support DEI goals. Handshake’s career fairs are specific to individual schools they work with. You can also use Yello for more robust event needs, including in-person events, virtual events, event scheduling, event management, and campus planning.
Yello supports interview events (like on-campus interviews, coffee chats, and more) with back-to-back time slots — as well as self-scheduling for 1:1 phone screens and more complex multi-session interviews. These interviews are critical for moving candidates down the pipeline — and without built-in functionality, your team may have to do manual work to build a similar interview process.
Yello evaluation forms are completely customizable to capture any information you’ll need — including custom fields and multiple templates for events and interviews.
Campus and diversity recruitment are so much more than just executing events. To truly be successful you need to build relationships with schools and orgs — and be able to track results and candidate demographics year to year to continue to improve your strategy. Yello offers Campus Profiles to track key campus contacts and details, as well as built-in student demographic reporting to help you find campuses that support your recruitment goals.
Candidates on WayUp self-report their information, so it’s 100% OFCCP and EEOC compliant. Yello also supports compliance and privacy best practices, so you can focus on sourcing and recruiting quality candidates.
As a Yello customer, you’ll have access to a dedicated team of support and success professionals. From ATS integrations to implementations and business reviews, our team’s expertise in DEI and early talent recruitment will help you achieve goals and work more effectively.
The Yello Pledge
The Yello Pledge represents our commitment to go above and beyond to support our customers’ success. We firmly believe that customer and candidate success is our success, and we promise to always treat you with honesty and respect.
Certainty on Renewal Pricing
We will never 2X your renewal price. Instead, we will contractually commit to any annual pricing changes so you will always have transparency.
Unrestricted access to engaged candidates
We will never monopolize access to candidates or dictate how you interact with schools. And all candidates we share with you will be engaged in our platform.
Focused on your success
We will never use our financial targets to dictate our relationship with you. Regardless of what Yello solution you use, you deserve to succeed, not just be upsold.
You dictate process, not us
We will never force you to use a specific feature or process that hinders your success or misleads candidates.
