14 Call Center Interview Questions & Answers

Image
The call center industry is one of the fastest growing in the country these days. As recently as ten years ago, there were only a few call center agents and the word call center was hardly ever used in the country. Today, almost every family has at least one member working in the call center industry. The reason for this boom is partly economics. In the Philippines, low paying jobs are very notorious and while call centers set up shop here because of the low labor costs, Filipinos decide to work for the call center industry because it pays higher than average wages. Consider this: if you are an average worker with an entry level position, you probably are getting paid seven to ten thousand a month; meanwhile, an average employee in the call center industry with an entry level position will get around fifteen thousand pesos a month, plus free dental and health benefits (HMO). Call centers also will pay your SSS (Social Security), PAGIBIG (home building fund), and PhilHealth (health ins

300 Strong and Brave Men is all we Need

It was all over the news yesterday. A man by the name of Ducat took hostage a bus filled with school children and two teachers on its way to Tagaytay for a field trip. It was supposed to be your everyday hostage taker who just wants to get rich quick. However there is a twist to this story. The hostage taker apparently owns the day care center which the school children inside the bus go to. Add to that, he owns that particular day care center.

The details were at first sketchy. But hours later it was clear. This Ducat was not your ordinary criminal. This person was committing such acts because he was fighting for his ideals. The daycare center which the hostages attend is a project of the hostage taker and it turns out that he was offering this service for free. He also has a foundation, the Ang Musmos foundation which cares for around 150 poor children from the slums of Tondo.

The guy demanded that all of the children under the care of his foundation shall be given university education. He also called on the people to think about who they would be voting for this mid term senatorial election. He said that people should not count on these politicians to help them, instead they should help themselves.

Quite a reflection there of the desperation felt by the poor Filipino masses. Indeed, it is disturbing that a man would go so far to demand for better education for poor Filipino kids.

What we need badly is a change. What we need are people who are not tainted with bad blood. Bong Revilla and Chavit Singson are two very opportunistic parasites. Yesterday, they went inside the bus and took advantage of the media coverage to appear as 'heroes'. Today, it was said that the police never allowed them to enter the bus. They were given the permission to talk to the hostage but only by phone or by shouting. These kind of politicians are trapo. They are cancers in our society. We need to eradicate these kind of people in our government.

We desperately need people like Paredes, Sison, and Bautista in the senate. We need to elect honest, passionate, and intelligent people as senators. We can't have the popular and glamorous making the laws of the land.

We need change, and we need it now! Vote for the Ang Kapatiran party.

We must campaign for these people! I am doing my part by displaying the banner of this party in my website (now defunct) which caters to Amateur Filipino Writers. You should do your part as well.

Together, we will march these champions to the senate, all 300 of us!

Cuando by Comic Relief song lyrics

Image
I could describe Comic Relief in two words: cutting edge. Gone now are the times when all the Chabacano songs that we hear were about the place itself. We finally heard a pop song in Chabacano. What's great is that it's not just any Chabacano pop song, it's a good one too. It doesn't sound corny like the other songs that we hear and it's very modernized so the youth could very much relate to it. Pirmi kita ta oi: bueno pa el maga Bisaya, bale el maga de ila cancion. Pues, ahora tiene ya tambien kita bale canciones en Chabacano. Cuando Lyrics by Comic Relief Que tal man tu ahora? Donde anda? Libre ba tu, puede yo lleva pasea Pasencia conmigo Si bodi man yo Pero precura yo dale contigo el todo Hinde ba tu ta sinti? De jalo lang que sufri Ta canta este cancion Con todo mi corazon pati mi pensamiento Cuando, cuando contesta? Pirmi yo ta resa Que kita dos ay queda Tu dulce palabra Pirmi yo ta espera Cuando tu contesta Si hinde ahora Cunda

No te Vayas de Zamboanga Song Lyrics

Image
No te vayas, no te vayas de Zamboanga Que me puedes, que me puedes olvidar No te vayas, no te vayas, ni me dejes Que yo sin ti, no puedo estar No llores, paloma mia No llores que volvere No llores que en cuando llegue Paloma mia, te escribire Con un pluma de ave Y un pedazo de papel Con la sangre de mis venas Paloma mia, te escribire. No Te Vayas de Zamboanga  is a Zamboangueño Spanish folk song written by Juan Cuadrado, Sr., a Spaniard who decided to stay in Zamboanga after the Spanish soldiers left the country. I read somewhere that this song was used in a Zarzuela entitled De Cavite A Zamboanga . In this Zarzuela , a Caviteña sings this song to her boyfriend who is going to Zamboanga. This is probably why there are versions wherein this song is titled No Te Vayas A Zamboanga . In fact, the English version of this song is translated from No Te Vayas A Zamboanga (Don't you go to far Zamboanga). This title however doesn't sit well among Zamboang
