Yesterday at Sanguniang Panlungsod ng Davao I attended the BPO-HR and Recruitment Forum. Actually, my classmates were also there and sad to say, if we were not there, the organizers of that forum will be disappointed. Why? Simply because we were so few. And as far as my memory is concern, there were only 5 people whom I am not acquainted to and the rest are my classmates. Oh, well maybe they had a lot of participants during their morning session because I arrived there by 1pm, so I don't know. My observation was just during the afternoon..hehe^^.
People had taken that event for granted. Because even though we were just few, the speakers were so good! It was a very informative forum. I haven't just learned that differently-abled people can study stuffs about technology but also I learned that they can also excel in that field. The very first speaker in that afternoon was Mr. Ralph Kiri-kiri, he is a differently-abled person, in particular, visually impaired. But don't you misjudge him because he is a Medical Transcriptionist. Do you know what that job is?How hard that job is? Huh..! It is a very tough job, I'll bet. I had undergone their (MTC Academy) simulation, and geee... It was so hard! I can't understand clearly what I was hearing! Come to think of it, I wrote 'star mycology' for a 'pharmacology'..! Wow..!(How deaf I am!)
Back to the real star, Mr. Kiri-kiri, he is a model for those like him and a bullet for those 'Juan Tamad' out there . (let me pull the trigger for you..hehe! I'll be shot too.) After his speech, Sir Gamboa asked some people from e-telecare (Maam Karol) and SUREcruit (Maam Laurence)to orient us or give some information about their company and let us ask some questions regarding their Human Resource. It was never boring, I just had a NOSEBLEED! hmmpp.. The speakers speak so good in English, no wonder they work in a call center.
Well, here are some of the things I have learned from the Call Center Agent Speakers:
•During job interviews always be confident
•If you'll be ask about yourself you're answer can be the summary of your resume
•e-telecare doesn't hire part-timers/students..^^
Oh yeah...Before I forget there was also a very good Madam who encourages us (the participants) to ask questions and she even ask things to the speaker, that we are the one who can benefit. She is Maam WIT.^^
I want to thank Mr. Kiri-kiri, Maam Karol, Maam Laurence and Maam Wit for their informative speeches. And of course I also want to thank our HRM Instructor who informed us about the forum, Sir Randy Gamboa. Thanks!
p.s.This is my first time to update things..hehe! ☻
