Lauren Hiegel
Penn State University Behrend College
BS Marketing
While at MPS, Lauren was involved in a wide variety of activities, from the soccer field and student government, to the student newspaper, Shorelines. All of this was done with a positive attitude. Recognized by her classmates in the Senior Superlatives as "The Most Friendly", it was a rare thing to catch her without a smile on her face or a kind word.
At Behrend, Lauren pursued a Marketing degree. She took part in the American Marketing Association, getting experience in networking and learning about opportunities in the field. She served as the organization's Vice-President for a year. She also interned with the SeaWolves getting experience in promotions. She had the opportunity in college to travel to Europe and came away feeling that it was a formative experience for her.
After college Lauren worked in Washington DC for GEICO Insurance as a recruiter, organizing on-campus recruiting events, interviewing job candidates and conducting informational presentations at conferences. Now she is with Bank of America in Charlotte, NC in Human Resources. Working in university relations, Lauren now helps identify talent, creates strategies to achieve target hires and organizes campus recruiting events around the country.
In keeping with her Mercyhurst Prep roots, Lauren spends a lot of time volunteering with Bank of America's community service programs, including working with the Humane Society and on community blood drives.
For Lauren, her experiences at Mercyhurst Prep..."allowed me to make long lasting relationships and become a more well-rounded and positive individual."
"MPS provides so many options to get involved and help find what you love, which will then help in your future success and happiness."
