• First point of customer contact

• Providing customer information about services and fees

• Discussing features and benefits of the service with customers

• Generating sales memos

• Ensuring documents are sent to relevant parties

• Creating and updating files

• Checking references

Working for a company that charges a fee to do homework and assignments for students

Q: I want to ask if it is halal and permissible by law to get paid to do someones homework, college and university assignments, thesis and so on. Students hire us and provide us the material/structure or question given by a professor or teacher and we write answers for them with a fee. I work for the company who provides this service to international students. Should I leave this job or wait until I get another one?
