Explanation of Role at FirstPoint USA.com:
"As a Sports Consultant at FirstPoint USA.com it is my responsibility to meet and assess potential clients for the company. Once they have been assessed on both academic and sporting ability we then decide whether to offer them a place on our successful program. If they then become a client I have to make sure that I take them through the full process and ultimately give them the best service possible. This includes guiding them through SAT registration, NCAA Clearinghouse registration and also making sure their online profile is up to date. I then pass them over for full promotion to American Coaches.”
