Frequently Asked Questions

I graduated 5 years ago. Should I use this?

Probably not. Handshake is designed for university students and 'early talent' (people within ~1-2 years of graduation). You will likely find better rates and faster approval on Outlier or Mercor if you are an experienced professional.

Is 'Handshake' the employer?

Technically, yes. For the specific 'AI Fellowship' roles, Handshake acts as the employer of record. This is different from the rest of the website, which is just a job board listing jobs for other companies.

Is this traditional consulting?

Not exactly. You act as a "Teacher" for advanced AI. Instead of client deliverables, you are given complex scenarios to evaluate. You grade the AI's logic, correct its hallucinations, and provide expert-level reasoning. Your job is to train the model to think like you do.

Why is the pay so high?

This role requires deep, verified expertise. General knowledge isn't enough; the model is specifically being trained on "edge cases"—the rare, difficult, or highly technical nuances that only a senior professional would know.

What is the workload like?

This is cognitive, deep work. Unlike simple data labeling, you might spend 45-60 minutes on a single task, researching citations or verifying complex calculations. Quality is prioritized over speed.

Is this an internship?

It depends. Handshake lists both standard internships and specific "AI Trainer" fellowships. Check the job description closely—if it mentions "1099" or "Contract," it is a freelance role, not a W-2 employment offer.
