Good prospects for BPOs despite the crisis (US)

BPO players see prospects from US financial crisis

The Operators of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) firms are looking at the US Financial Crisis at the positive side where more BPOs would maintain its outbound or inbound jobs in the Philippines.

Marienita del Monte, chief of Cybercity Services in Davao looks at it as additional clients coming in or opening of additional contact centers here.

In the case of their company she said new clients already had contract with them for inbound jobs considering that it is more cost effective.

This is good for Filipinos because the opportunity is big for people looking for jobs and there is work in the call center.

For as long as the person knows the English language and pass the requirements regardless of age they can get a job on line.

This kind of jobs is highly dependent on the cabling network and most BPOs are looking at Davao City as the preferred site.

Citing some facts she said a nationally organized survey indicated that Davao City for three occasions was named as the preferred city to put up a BPO while an Asian survey also mentioned Davao City once of the ten countries to pick for contact center operations.

Not bad because over the others, Dabawenyos have all the chance for this kind of job. So check out the language schools here so that when the BPOs come marching you will be the first to take the seat.
