i worked as a supervisor in call center in the philippines and pretty much, the call center easiest to get into is the one that pays less or has bad management. as an aspiring call center agent/employee, you should think "why" you fail the application. then work on it. i should say, stick to the big ones. they're always worth working for.

I'm sorry if you haven't gotten the job you seek, but I have call center experience and mostly we were looking for people who were excellent in customer service. Anyone can be trained to know the material (well almost anyway), but the customer service aspect has to be in you when you get there to apply for the job. Some people are naturals at it, some get better with practice, and others are just not cut out for it at all. By the way, I am not Filipino, nor do I live in the Phillipines, but I can still give you a company to look for: Sykes Enterprises, Inc., in Manila. The reason I know this, is because I worked for them in the U.S. and we actually brought a workforce here from Manila, trained them in call center operations, and then took them back home, where we built and launched a call center. It's still there today. Having said that, don't count someone out because they aren't from your country. People around the world are able to help with things even though you may not think they could. Don't discount anyone's opinion, whether they are from the Phillipines or not, they just may know something that you don't.

Education in the US SUCKS! I passed through High School sleeping through most of it.

It depends on what type of school and what type of teachers you get on whatever school. My high school years where pretty easy because my teachers would only teach you for half the class and the rest just goof off (not everyday). On my school there was like probably 10 white people and like 5 black people and the rest was mexicans (half american and half Mexican or just pure Mexican) where I live I don't see often black people not even on cars nor on the streets. It's just mexicans and mexicans gangsters (there not like outside throwing signs and stuff or walk in packs or whatever.) and white people, oh and my neighbors were Philippines but they move to another house couple of blocks from where we live. We know them (not there mom).

well as an american, the education system here is terrible but it all depends on what school you go to and how well they teach if your like 16 they will put you in your supposely correct grade and you can start from there i believe you will be able to recieve a scholarship! hope this helped a little, good luck and welcome to America!!

I'm not sure. I had a friend who was from America then moved here. She got mostly A+'s, and A's in America, but when she got here it was mostly like her grades were in the 85% to 87% range. I honestly think it high school in America is a bit easier, but then again it depends on what kind of school you studied in when you were in the Philippines, because there are high schools in America that teach topics that are not touched on in the Philippines. And usually, there are like honors classes and AP classes, that the Philippines doesn't have, and I'm pretty sure that honors and AP classes affect your chances in getting a college scholarship. Anyway, goodluck!

you may wish to check to see who will accept your degree if you graduate from a philippine university. most degrees arent worth the paper they are written on in the usa.

First, check with your university's External Linkages Office to see if there are offerings. Usually, universities from East Asia, especially China, Japan, Korea, and member nations of ASEAN do have Philippine exchange systems. Last time I checked, Japan (Waseda) and Taiwan Universities have currently on-going exchanges with the Philippines. There are lots of exchange students here in Manila (as well as international students) and many of the exchangees are Japanese and Koreans. Most of them actually opt to stay in the Philippines because of the excellent shopping and nightlife in Manila, and the relatively near tropical beaches. I had four exchange student classmates, 2 are Korean, 1 is Vietnamese, and 1 is White American. De La Salle University-Manila by far, is the largest accepting institution for exchange students.
