[Steeples]

Thanks!

[otakusenshi]

sorry... most/all call centers have a bond ranging from 10k up to 45k or even more... some are for 2mos while some are 6mos depending on the postion...

in short... wala... y ask anyway?

[kateh]

ambergris walang bond... ang sistema nila, half lang ng salary mo and ibibigay nila sayo on your first month, pero ibibigay rin sayo yung kalahati on your 6th month. compared to others the amount is not really big. around 3-4k lang.

[razzp]

Yup Ambergris.

[CiGaWeTte]

ICT walang bond

[lh3n]

RMH Teleservices

[beefeater]

Sykes ata bond-free raw.

[chinghe]

meron ding bond sa sykes. in US$ pa nga eh.

[anya_lang]

sa sykes depende kung sang account ka. ibang accounts may bond especially yung abroad yung training. pero mostly walang bond.

[potatochips]

client logic daw wala rin

yup may bond. depends on the account. And yes, it is in US dollars

[Ernestina]

sa c-ube ba meron?

[twistedwhisper]

air relay corporation walang bond

[boogerflicker]

para saan ba ang bond para sa call centers? dito sa sektor namin, basta pumasok ka, buong sahod ang ibibigay sa iyo.

[twistedwhisper]

well ang bond kasi para maging sure ang company na tatapusin mo yung contract that you signed with them. if not, then you'll have to pay a bond. it depends on the company how much. Pero it does not necessarily mean na babawasan yung sweldo mo.:*)

[twistedwhisper]

i am working in a call center right now. :*)

[one_shot]

mabibilang mo na lang sa kamay yung mga alang bond. Almost all call centers now have bonds included in their employment contract. tapos dun sa iilan na yun, with the exception of a few - mostly start-up pa lang, or pipitsugin (i.e., low pay, little/no benefits, toxic yung job, pangit yung environment)...

[martinjg]

West... no bond.

kasi the company will spend money to train you. they have to get their investment back because they are already paying you your salary even while in training.

[otakusenshi]

tsaka isa pa... halimbawa nagtraining ka sa not well known call center para ma neutralize ang accent then umalis ka agad after training... lugi naman sila nun... dahil ikaw lang ang gagamit ng training sa kapag lumipat ka sa mas magandang call ecnter...

[avonlea]

dun sa pampanga, walang bond...

[avonlea]

that call center in pampanga... walang bond, walang contract...

[FendeR_21]

Sykes Cebu i heard... wala

When you think about it, they're already getting a huge bargain by underpaying you. And besides, it's their prerogative to train you as it is a specialized business where the needed know-how is not taught in schools.

[quarkie]

epacific global inc. walang bond daw! pero la pay din ang training kaya daw at least quits ***....hehe!

dunno if it's gud to work there nga lang...

saan yung APAC sa Alabang?

[jonbprofeta]

@orangef1 : APAC is located at the Plaza C of Northgate Cyberzone in Alabang beside the Informatics school and Bellevue Hotel.

[bishop]

i'm wondering why people ask about bonds and all...

if you have doubts about the job, the schedule, or other what-have-yous, i suggest don't accept the job. it's simple.

it's just totally useless, not to mention a waste of valuable time, if you don't think you can stay long in a job.

[Carson's Angel]

I'm planning to work in a call center pero sana yung walang bond. I'll be working kasi for 3-4 months lang because I'll be leaving for US within April-June.

I badly need to work kasi syempre I need money to buy things I need before I leave and to pay all my debts sa credit card. :-[ Your suggestions will really help..

[Dacs]

Try West. They don't have any bond, although it's a bad idea telling them about your plans during the interview process.

[Carson's Angel]

Thanx. What else pa kaya? I'm interested in applying at Eperformax kaso me bond daw dun. Can I just go AWOL? Will they run after me? (Hehe..bad idea) :)

[TheRedGuy]

ambergris walang bond, may gaming account pa!

May non-compete clause naman, stating that a former agent is not allowed to work for a direct competitor (i.e. another call center) within a year of resigntion. Although maraming nakakalusot naman dito, since daming nagresign samin and within a month they're in Sykes, Sitel, Teletech, etc, and most of them are QA people na.

C-Cube does, too. A friend of mine who used to work fir Ambergris didn't get accepted into C-Cube because they know we have a non-compete clause dito sa Ambergris. Pero natanggap naman siya sa Sitel. So it really all depends sa next call center na a-apply-an mo.

[ftian_boy]

anoano po ba callcenter na tumatanggap ng mga galing clientlogic kahit di pa expired *** clause? Ayoko na kasi bumalik dun bulok daw management e help naman... TIngin nyo kaya dapat ilagay ko na lang sa resume na la pa me work experience para di na maquestion? pls rep or pm me for advises thanks

[r_69_e]

^ samen! :D :)

[hedonism]

sa eperformax ok lang kahit sang call center ka pa galing..kahit na di mo natapos contract mo ok lang din..

[fresh_start]

where is APAC located? meron bang discrimination der coz im not from one of those "top" schools? is there an opening? im jz doin part time job & rily need to earn more right now coz financial obligations are piling up... my present income is not enaf thanks a lot!...

[fresh_start]

meron po bang cell center in laguna area *** mas malapit so i could still keep my part time job?

[r_69_e]

^I heard Etel will start up a site there but I'm not really sure when. is this true ETEL peeps? :)

APAC is in Alabang. They dont discriminate people there as long as you are a graduate and thats it..

[fresh_start]

thanks a lot guys! this thread is very informative,i learned a lot from this site! kudos...

[speed_demon]

ambergris walang bond, may gaming account pa!

asteeg! anong account yan? pwde bang sabihin?

[legal-recruiter]

oh im sorry but its a directive from our clients that we should/could not to divulge the name of the account.

[MnEsArEtE]

well what if u didnt last long enough pano *** bond? what if you got sick? or hospitalized? will they disregard the bond?

[legal-recruiter]

it would depend... since in the call center where i am in we dont have a bond. we only have a non compete clause... which states one cant work in the same industry for a year... in my own opinion i dont think they will cancel the effectivity of your bond. because the fact still remains you were employed in their company... you were exposed to confidential info regarding your account and the company... that is just my stand. i dont know if other recruiters have different views than mine. :)

[MnEsArEtE]

I Called Up Hrd They Said Its Fine... Nothing To Be Paid And I Can Just Get A Waiver For The Non Compete Clause But Thanks Anyway

[LucKyStriKe]

epacific global inc. walang bond daw! pero la pay din ang training kaya daw at least quits ***....hehe!

dunno if it's gud to work there nga lang...

when im still with ePac, there were no bonds & may pay ang training sa'min. 3 weeks ang training, 1 week for product training (lecture) & 2 weeks ang training on the production floor and you will be obliged already to sell the product. But that was during my time (2002-2003), di ko lang alam now. :splat:

[dragonrower]

APAC is in Alabang. They dont discriminate people there as long as you are a graduate and thats it..

pano kung undergrad o hindi na nag-aaral, will they discriminate them? parang hindi pa rin welcome magtrabaho dun ah

[MnEsArEtE]

yeah... im an undergrad i plan to apply pa naman there well i guess i just have to forget the idea... aaaaaaaaaaarrrggghhhh.......well at least di me nagsayang ng oras at pamasahe

[dragonrower]

mnesarete...apply ka people support, there kahit matandang undergrad welcome na welcome. it's true, i saw a lolo taking calls! morning shift sya palagi kasi syempre hindi na nya kakayanin ang GY sa edad nyang 57 :D

[BeePeeOOO]

I agree, PS does not discriminate in terms of age. They do check your work experience and competencies - apart from the diffficult exam.. May stock options pa kayo in the long run!

Older people[past 30] seem to be more loyal to the company - my personal observation.

[maganda_yan]

HSBC ELECTRONIC DATA PROCESSING PHILS.(HDPP) doesnt have bonds or non-compete clause. u can submit ur resume thru their headhunters (jobsdb, addforce, people4people, john clements, ward howell). after ur exam & inetrview w/ any of these headhunters u will be referred na agad for final interview at hsbc...=)

[MnEsArEtE]

cool! :rocker: kse from jobsdb me the problem with them is they schedule interviews 2 companies per day! 1 sa am 1 sa pm and of course youd have to spend the whole day with the first company and theyd ask u to come back the following day for final interview and stuff. i had scheds for etel, people suppport, teleperformance, and more!!! jobsdb scheduled it 3 days na sunod sunod!! gosh isa lang me noh! and since im new bout this stuff i went for the first and second companies and it ate up the rest of my week meaning wala na *** schedule ko for other companies like people support!!! pano un? nasa list pa kaya me or i can just drop by anytime? :walkman: :whatthe: :juggler:

[MnEsArEtE]

HSBC at madrigal? how much dun? inbound? outbound? sales billing? id appreciate aaaaany info thnx :cat: *okay* :turncat:

[dragonrower]

people support!!! pano un? nasa list pa kaya me or i can just drop by anytime? :walkman: :whatthe: :juggler:

[MnEsArEtE]

[purpledamsel]

HSBC doesnt have a bond.. Ü I work there.. :diablo:
Oh and Carson, dont think about applying nor working at EPERFORMAX. I used to work for them, I was with the MCI account. THE COMPANY SUCKS!! It's true that there is a BOND, P27,000. The people there are conceited, as if naman they're such a FAMOUS COMPANY NOH!

[BeePeeOOO]

Purpledamsel,

Are there any other accounts with HSBC BPO aside from collections? Any morning and mid-shift accounts within HSBC-BPO?

[MnEsArEtE]

purpledamsel
which hsbc? sa alabang? pano ba process nila don? can i just drop by anytime?

[rainfall]

c-cube meron?

[BeePeeOOO]

Rainfall,

C-Cube has a PHP30K bond that is proportionately reduced as a staff completes a one year employment contract. Its non-compete clause[to my understanding] prohibits working in the same account or an industry competitor of the account[where staff is posted] for a period of six months after resignation.

Please do take note that this non-compete clause is more reasonable as compared to other call centers that bar you from working in the whole "call center" industry[irregardless of account] for a period of one year after resignation/termination. However, if a staff does not complete the training - that person is barred from the whole "call center" industry for one year after termination date.

You will given a "fixed term employment contract"[renewable yearly] as long as the account exists with C-Cube.

That is how I understood the contract when I read and pondered over it last year. I did not sign it due to second thoughts. They have the most difficult set of examinations I have gone through in the BPO industry! They even have a press release that says that their hiring rate is 2 percent. Anyway, if you sign the contract, they have a small class size that will give you a high probability of passing the training! Their HR top officials staff and training officers are quite articulate in having a conversation with - nice people.

Bye the way, they have shower room, sleeping room, and gaming room[sleeping room is a must, I should say!]. You will need those due to the graveyard shift that may sometimes require you to come to work in the early morning hours.

Hope that helps.

Cheers!

[rainfall]

^^ thanks, thanks BeePeeOOO!!!

Purpledamsel,

HSBC (Actually HSBC Data Processing Philippines, or HDPP) handles as well Customer Care and Lost and Stolen (UK account). Customer Care and Collections are US accounts.

[siteller]

sa SITEL, wala kaming training bond, wala din non compete, may premium pay for experience pa.
