How to use in LaunchPadAI

1. Canvas → Career Resources widget already links many of these sources.
2. Upload any of these Markdown files in chat (paperclip) so advisors can RAG against them.
3. Advisors are prompted to prefer Handshake, LinkedIn, campus career services, and official company university pages — and never invent openings.
