By Lea Mercado Web Content Assistant Manager Have you ever felt like you were put on this earth to do something big? No one told you to or provided instruction, but the feeling persisted until reality stepped in the way or self-doubt crept in. I know that feeling, and while some may categorize that feeling differently, I call it purpose. For the longest time, I thought that my purpose was […]
By Lea Mercado Web Content Assistant Manager It seems like everyone is going through some sort of change these days.

The time where college students finally update their resumes, cave into writing cover letters and learn how to market their skills to employers.
