I, The Graduating Engineering Student Turned Incidental Writer ( Fifth Stride) Call-center Age

By:


Foreword.
This series of articles, on the travails and torments of required writing for school term papers, thesis or dissertation, are purposely taken in the point of view of the student in the graduating or senior years. Hopefully, they reveal how much anguish and agony he goes through in every phase of the activity he is obliged to present, even to defend in front of a panel of peers, prior to receiving his much toiled-for diploma.
Previously.
The graduating student, whose subject proposal is now accepted by the English professor he used to secretly call Darth Vader, has interviewed an expatriate who had rose from the ranks in a call-center. His extensive experience gives us deeper understanding what it was like working in one.

My friend the call-center agent speaks English as a second language because it was the medium of instruction in the high school and college where he studied in his native country. Being an engineer was not the reason he was accepted in call centers it was his conversational ability. He was a Customer Service Representative for one year making telemarketing calls, then a Technical Service Representative for two more years taking calls from irate clients having problems with internet connections.

He mentioned the following motivations:

Better than average income investors are quite gratuitous in compensation policies and promotion schemes. This is largely due to the wage difference had the same jobs been taken in the country of origin. In most cases these investors actually save anywhere from $2 - $5 an hour per day per agent. They can therefore implement bigger base salaries, night-shift differentials, holiday and overtime remunerations, and performance bonuses. An additional 30% to 50% to the take-home pay is quite commonly expected.

Job satisfaction as part of an elite group only about 2.5% to 3.5% of all applicants is ever accepted. English as a second language requires exposure and habitual use, a trait that is apparently common in the upwardly mobile generation that is young, smart, articulate, and yes, sexy. This is regardless of age, education, religion, skin color, physical disability, gender or orientation - the perfect Equal Opportunity Employment.

Economic upliftment on a personal, family, and national level - it proved to be a considerable hedge against the recent recession felt in many nations. As a matter of fact, in no other area of the economy was the outlook brighter than in this industry, and coupled with government support, also unbeatably secure.

Only one real requirement. being conversational in English is all that is needed, imperatively. It is in High School where most students learn the rudiments and complexities of this language: correct grammar, correct syntax, and correct sentence structure. People are English speakers before they become professionals in their respective fields. The ability to express extemporaneously in English has been lost simply because it is not used every day. It is therefore fairly easy to hone the ability back by using it daily, in all circumstances, in all situations, at all times.
