 Abstract (Document Summary)

He has a profile on beRecruited because, like [Melissa Loyzer], he wants to study in the United States and doesn't think he has enough exposure to recruiters in Hamilton.

Loyzer doesn't use the social networking site's application, though, because all her Facebook friends would be able to see which coaches viewed her stats. Her beRecruited page is set to private and is only accessible to coaches.
