One of my classes this semester is all about preparing us to land our first engineering job. So naturally the first area we all needed to tackle was our resumes. Resume writing can be a really tricky thing, hey? As I prepared and updated my own, I again had to go through the process of trying to choose my most relevant experiences and to find the right adjectives to express them with and...you know how it is. In my resume, though, there is a very noticeable gap where for three years I had no work experience and no further schooling. But I definitely had experience. It was a nice opportunity I had to revisit that time and the lessons I learned while attending and volunteering with Generation Peace Academy (GPA). In comparison to this, my time working or in post-secondary school, although important, was far less impactful on my life. The truth is, what I experienced would mean very little if I didn’t seek to find its relevance in my everyday life. It’s really like any of our experience
