Hi everyone!
Another week has flown by! This week was packed with
many fun activities, ranging from assisting in a catering event for Elite
Center Gymnastics to going to a resume-building workshop.
On Monday morning, we met with Jeff Heim, who is a senior
instructor of Hospitality Management. We were very fortunate to spend time with
Jeff, who is an expert in resumes. He gave us some of the basic rules of thumb
to always follow, and also worked with each of us individually on how to
improve our own personal resumes. The workshop was very helpful and we all got
a lot out of it.
We also got the opportunity to tour the food warehouse at
Penn State. It was incredible to see the large space that Penn State uses to
store both its perishable and nonperishable food items. We got to hear about
the new expansion that will soon be taking place.

In addition, we also talked to a few women from the
purchasing department. It was incredible to hear about the level of detail that
they must focus on for their job. They handle ordering nearly everything that
is food-related for Penn State. Whether it is plastic forks or a specific kind
of eggs, each purchase requires a significant amount of time and thought. It
was good to hear that the purchasing team works hard to keep costs low to save
the students money.
Until next time!
