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.

It is election season once more. It is that time again when politicians will sing and dance, bash each other, and tell you everything that you want to hear, all in the name of getting your vote.  As part of my civic responsibility, I had been reminding friends and acquaintances to register for the 2023 Barangay and SK Elections. If you have already registered for the 2023 elections, it is now time to know your polling center and precinct number. Having these information in hand on election day will drastically reduce the amount of time you spend in the voting process. Here is a step by step guide on how to find your precinct number. 1. First, visit  https://precinctfinder.comelec.gov.ph/voter_precinct . 2. Click on 'Continue' to signify consent that you are allowing COMELEC to process your data.
