PeopleSupport

[Angsod]

i'm just curious, i've heard a lot about the company

[Ada]

A friend of mind applied there a few weeks ago but hasn't received a call from them yet. I believe they just moved into their new office in Makati and that they're fixing up the place before hiring people. If I'm not mistaken, the starting salary is P16,500. It's a phone and email support company ata.

[yuga]

They are a US company also based here in the Phils. Help desk/ call center. Starting salary is P13,000. A friend of mine worked there for over a month but didn't get paid so he resigned and got a job at PhilamLife for the same amount.
My friend said he doesn't know what was actually happening with the company. They didn't even promptly infor their employees about the salaries ans stuff. Poor people - all work an no pay.

[SaintOfKissers]

I had the funniest experience when I applied here back when their office was still in Libis. Basically, they give you an easy 15 item Internet test when you start off. I think once you pass that, you can do their next test. They're the only company I know that takes typing skills into consideration. I guess they need it.

Anyway, I've started with computers since I was really young so I could type pretty quick. While I was doing their typing test practice, I got a 100 percentile for that practice trial. The guy looked at me as though I was an alien. After that I had to take 3 more genuine-timed tests, all of which scored higher each time. When I left, my friend who was sitting beside me told me that they couldn't believe I had typed that many words in a minute. They checked and re-checked their typing program to see if something was wrong! I don't know about you guys but I find that hilarious!

Bottomline... If you're looking for a company where you can climb that corporate ladder and meet people that can help you get up, this ain't the place to do it. But if what interests you is purely the salary and you're a lazy bum who'd rather be a robot and sit in front of the computer saying "PeopleSupport, how may I help you?" 8 hours for 6 days... then this is your HEAVEN! :D

[Jakel]

you can visit their website at www.peoplesupport.com (http://www.peoplesupport.com) if you want to learn more about the company...

[ng@k]

Do you know anything about this company? Where is it located? What type of people are they hiring?

[leira]

they used to be located at eastwood city, libis. i think they're in makati now. they prefer people with good computer background. the job's just like those in e-telecare, customer support/service.

[brownpau]

Customer service support company, similar nga to E-Telecare or Sykes. Their office is in Philamlife Bldg, Paseo de Roxas Ave., Makati. I know someone working there. Baket?

[ng@k]

it's because they're hiring. my friend told me that PeopleSupport called her up. What do you think about the salary?

[KuyaDanny]

This topic has been discussed before:

Sykes, ETelecare, PeopleSupport - and the winner is? (http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php3?threadid=10482)

ANYBODY KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PEOPLE SUPPORT! (http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php3?threadid=10317)

I'm sorry that the first thread was closed because the discussion turned into a flame war. But if you can read beyond the flames you might find some useful information.

[ng@k]

Thanks for the information.

[zimdude]

For what it's worth, they have a nice office at Philamlife Tower!

[KuyaDanny]

What were you doing there, zimdude? Babewatching again? ;)

[f0r5aK3n]

i know someone here in PEX who works there.. :)

[kyutfeys]

i applied for that company last year. and i underwent an exam on internet and computer basics, as well as a typing exam. i think i'm ok with internet and computer stuffs but men! my typing skill sucks. and i was told that they'll contact me within a week for an initial interview and ofcourse they didn't, he he! ;)

[zimdude]

:lol: I won't be admitted entry to the building if I said that my official purpose there was.. babewatching :lol:

No babes there, only empty desks.

[melancholy]

hey, i currently work at peoplesupport... i think everything has improved since the last time you guys looked...

the work has a high-stress level... grabe... try talking to an angry german... while he's screaming at you... "souksen verbouite das schalien!"... whatever that means... my brain is working every minute of my shift there... so please... give the company some credit...

it's not a sit-in-front-of-you-computer job... you have to be on your toes... 200% of the time...

i love the rec room though... counterstrike rocks! i only hope they had a shower room there... yun na lang ang kulang eh...

email me your comments at manitou17damienx@lycos.com
see ya around people!

no pun intended... :lol:

:turncat:

[yakult]

hmm...they called me up once or twice last month, pero I was never home to take the call. Kaya eto...bum pa rin ako. Although naiintriga ako as to what could have been.:glee: by the way, I think another person from People Support made a Small Talk thread for People Support People...este People Support PExers.:beam:

[cutebabe]

About the salary thing, it is competitive I guess for the type of work that they ask you to do... "customer service".... but you got to do a lot of thinking before considering a "career" there... a job no prob.. but a career is something different... since it is similar to e-telecare and sykes, then the company is operating 24/7 which means that working schedule is on a shifting basis....with no holidays and permanent rest days and even permanent schedules(!) how would you like to go to work at 1am, 4am or anything of the like in the morning.... for "gimikeros" , no prob... but THINK about it... somehow, slowly, it's going to wipe out your social life with your friends.... the only people who would more often than not have time for you are your officemates... And for career growth and experience... naaahhhh.... really big time companies wouldn't care much nor less about your work experience there... so, if you're a person with big ambitions and want to a career big time, my advice is, don't go to companies like this... yes, they satisfy your needs for the moment, but in the long run, you will definitely regret it..... take it from me, i take it from experience and friends who experienced the same thing.... if you still don't believe me, then go ask people who work for such companies... or if not, find out for yourself... of course, everybody is entitled to his/her own opinion. good luck!

[beams]

my friend works there. so far so good. yun nga lang di ko makausap ng matino. when i'm going to bed, she's on her way to work, pag ako naman ang ite-text niya, busy naman ako sa work. ewan ko lang kung pano ang compensation. mukhang ok lang naman. di naman siya nagrereklamo. pero yun na nga, yung sinasabi ng iba dito, i also don't think working there is a career move. if you're only starting out, magandang humbling experience siya siguro.

[BuTterChewY]

The atmosphere at PeopleSupport is more relaxing than etelecare's. And the entrance exam is much easier, reading comprehension and some internet stuff. I had my final interview already and I'm already shortlisted. They are already training a new batch of eReps last Aug.13, I heard. I'm crossing my fingers that a friend and I would be included in the next batch. For the meantime, we are offered a temporary job, one month lang. Not bad, at least we can do something while waiting. They are hiring all year-round I heard. Anyway, you can always call them for inquiries, accomodating naman and receptionist and they are really nice people, di masungit. Or check out their website at www.peoplesupport.com.

Some thinks that working at People is an insult to one's intelligence.. but you know, it's how you view your job naman e. What is important, you love what you're doing and you like the company. Yung mga salaries, bonus na lang yon! ;)

[kNIGHT]

Anyone in that group? As for the work....it all about your initiative to render more work than your job description. Almost everyone starts in the entry level position except in special cases. As for the social life and career growth...it all depends on the individual involved. I personally get to do more things because I work on graveyard here. I have been avoiding traffic and the hot weather for almost a year now! If you are really good and full of ideas to improve the company's or your team's management style, you would surely be carefully watched and molded by the management. :)

[kNIGHT]

You also can play CS and billiards after work. See you around!

[PS]

Hello!

Yup, I guess ok na rin dito.

Salary is competitive (although, the rumor is Sykes and eTelecare offer superior salaries...kaya lang mas maganda naman ang atmosphere dito).

We have our own rec rooms!!! You can play CounterStrike to your hearts content!! WE HAVE CABLE TV!!!! We have a NEW BILLIARD table!!!! Bago yung pantry sa 12th floor!!! AYOS!!!! MWHAHAHHAHAHA :teehee:

Sana matuloy na yung expansion sa Ortigas para doon na lang ako...mas malapit sa bahay namin.

fifolsufort!!!

Curious... how "competitive" is it? They called me for exams this week... hopefully, I'll pass the exams.

Also--is it true that there's a 6 months probationary period, and that the pay's only 7K while on this period?

:confused:

4 months contract, 6 months probationary period, and pay's definitely not 7K.

[dirklance]

i had my interview last sept 3. they said they would call. but until now they haven't. so i guess i flunked the interview. huhuhuhu.
or have i? pwede ko ba follow up?

ahhh the joys of jobhunting!! :winky:

was it your initial interview? curious-- what did they ask you?

:confused:

[reybelde]

I heard na PeopleSupport is accepting undergraduates. Is this true, para kahit papaano makapag-submit ako ng application?

:drive:

[thehitman]

Yes, PS is accepting undergraduates, but only on a project basis. Projects usually last for four months.

:cool:

Thanks for the info. What are the examples of projects that usually are being given out to undergrads?

I think I could handle this, for as long as this is night shift. Anyway, I'm almost done with my thesis (just updating it).

:drive:

[candyrain]

yeah.. it is true. peoplesupport is hiring undergrads. they're expanding and they need all the help they can get. desperate measures?

Whew! I hope you didn't mean this in a bad way. Marami naman undergrads na deserving to be hired. Buti nga yon coz ang daming undergrads na naghahanap ng trabaho ngayon. :wink:

[noel_icky]

anyone help me please!

i called poeple's office regarding my applix and they scheduled me for an exam tomorrow afternoon. then, just a few hours earlier, someone called me from etelecare and scheduled me for exams tomorow din, same time as people's!

i've heard a lot about both companies and based on those things i think people is better in terms of the environment and work load (clients?). but i think etel's salary is higher than people's (is this really true?)

personally, i want people although etel pays better. but i still need advice from you, guys, who work in people.

btw, may i know what exactly is the starting salary in peoplesupport? and is the work there always in the graveyard shift?

Honga. I agree with this post, medyo masama ang dating ng post ni candyrain. And besides undergrads, IMHO, should be given the chance also to prove their stuff. At least PS is already opening out for undergrads who want to have the experience so they could pursue this as a career.

Anyways I might be trying out either this afternoon or on Monday (I'll call them first to confirm such) at the office for the opening for E-reps per project basis.

I don't think they are expanding. I won't elaborate on the reasons why they are hiring. It is kinda complicated. I have also left the company a few months ago. Good luck to all the applicants! :D

[kathy_luscious]

Originally posted by kNIGHT I don't think they are expanding. I won't elaborate on the reasons why they are hiring. It is kinda complicated. Hmm... can't you give us any info about it? Is it some corporate chismis that no one has to know?

On the contrary, PeopleSupport is expanding. As for the starting salary, eTel and PS are practically giving the same starting salary as far as I know, give or take a thousand bucks.

:cool:

[reybelde]

Was able to hurdle the exam yesterday (in a way pamatay!), and for that sa final interview na ako. Haaay nako wala lang akong idea how would it be/look like sa final interview. One told me rehash lang daw yun ng initial phone interview?

:drive:

[thehitman]

Yes, a rehash more or less. That interview will just confirm the findings of the initial interview (oral English skills, willingness to work in shifts, etc). Furthermore, based on your answers, HR will know where exactly you will be placed. AFAIK, there are four accounts (I can elaborate no further) that need people, so your answers to that interview will be the basis for the team in which you will be placed.

:cool:

[kathy_luscious]

WTG reybelde !:up: After the exams, it's the final interview already? Well, that means I'm scheduled for the final interview too!

Hmm... any tips, Mr. Hitman?? :winky:

*paw*

[thehitman]

Tips?

1. Speak in straight English. A whiff of anything not English could earn a frown. If you get a frown, tread carefully.

2. As much as possible, do not stammer. Speak slowly if you have to, but do not stammer. It is easier to train a slow speaker than a stammering speaker.

3. Think before you speak. And when you speak, be honest, and mean what you say.

4. Smile, like this: :)

:cool:

[blakedaddy]

good tips hitman

I was actually planning to try out a call center for a part time job.

Another thing I can say to those applying, the best way to get the american accent is talk to fil-ams or fil-canadians in english and hang out with them as often. You won't notice but eventually, you'll pick up the twang even though not that obvious.

:cool:

Expanding in terms of either more clients or more volume from existing clients. I think they are expanding in terms of more volume from existing clients. I don't think they have any big new clients. I'll check it out with the people there! :D

[Una_dagmar]

I just got interviewed last Tuesday and man, it was pretty much okay considering that the people there were very pleasant to speak to.

I'm just quite caught back by your info that after the exams comes the final interview. You mean to tell me that the interview I went through was the final interview?

I am quite eager to work at PeopleSupport since I found the environment quite pleasant. Hope I get a call within two weeks...a call that confirms my being hired. Then I can finally say, "Makati, here I come!":D

[noel_icky]

I also applied there and was interviewed last Monday. They called me yesterday if i could start on this Monday. The training will be starting this Monday already. unfortunately for me, i have something really important to do on wednesday so i could not start right away. i just asked them to put my application on hold.:rolleyes:

[reybelde]

I got interviewed last Thursday as expected, but the thing is, IMHO, I have 50-50 chances of getting hired. Sa interview pa lang pinin-down na ako ng nag-interview sa akin about why up to my age undergrad pa rin ako and similar stuff (although I'm applying for Project eRep).

That very same day, a call center in Libis contacted me that I'm already scheduled for training this coming Monday after passing their super-tough exam (actually, that was tougher than PS') and the interview. I might have no choice but to undergo training with them in Libis.

:drive:

[Una_dagmar]

I guess I haven't gotten the job after all if you guys got the response so quickly.

Well, I can't blame them, though since I have a job at present, and all I wanted was to relocate anyway. I am only available for the job after 2-4 weeks.

Well, back to jobhunting again!

[kathy_luscious]

Question: What if you have mentioned to them that you were applying as an eRep... and then a new opening for a different job @ PeopleSupport comes up... will that be a different exam? and interview?

Or what happens after the interview-- in case they like you, and want to hire you, they'll put you on the proper department ba? And is it true that there's a 6-month training?

kulet, grabe! :winky:

*paw*

[Pointless]

Well, I got hired there last Monday and I'm going to start this Monday... I'm kind of excited, it's not the kind of job that you take with you at home and yet it's not a job that'll bore you to death too... A starting job here is perfect for me since I need to be exposed to people more to get rid of my shyness...

[ZephyrInTheSky]

This is something I posted in the call centers thread. I don't know how to copy smilies, so this posting doesn't look as funny as the one in the call centers thread. But here it is anyway:

---------------------------------

Hey there!

I've been working at PeopleSupport for more than a year now, although quite frankly it feels like I've been in the company for three years already. That's how being in a call center can age you. You have to deal with so much stress. At first you have to deal with client knowledge, and that can be hard if you're someone like me who was assigned to a very technical client when you graduated from a totally unrelated and non-technical course. Then you have to deal with the fact that you no longer have a normal life, because you're awake when people aren't, and you're days off can be something like Tuesday/Wednesday. Then there's the feeling that you're detaching from you're closest friends or worse your boyfriend/girlfriend because you don't have time to see them anymore. And added to all of that is the fact that every other call there's some idiot who's swearing at you because he has no idea what he's gotten himself into, and who's constantly putting you down because he thinks he know more than you do.

So why am I still working in a call center? Well, for one, I've finally begun to love my job, believe it or not. Don't get me wrong though. I've had two resignation letters that I created when I could no longer take the bull$#?+. Both were approved by superviors, but eventually withdrawn. But after one year at PeopleSupport, I finally have the feeling that I'm going to be staying in my job for a bit longer (not too long, though). First of all, I can no longer imagine being part of the regular world, where there are masses of people, where there is heavy traffic, and where there is sunlight. I can honestly say that I would probably experience culture shock if my next job was a regular Mon-Fri, 9AM to 5PM job. Then there's the fact that I finally grew to love our client. A lot of people think that all you do all day (or night, rather) in a call center is repeat lines and scripts non-stop over the phone like a brainless machine (half-true, I must admit). However, this obviously depends on the client that your call center works for. Our client is notorious for its irate callers and its extremely difficult and illogical system. I'm glad to say that I've finally mastered the system. I'm also happy that the people around me appreciate my work, and I like it when people ask my opinion on what they should do if they have a difficult case. The of course there's the PeopleSupport atmosphere, which I always loved and will always appreciate. We're very casual and laid back, and people are generally friendly --- as long as you don't work for the travel client. They've got a totally repressive culture.

Of course there's also the pay. For the benefit of those who don't know (although it's probably already been discussed previously in this thread), at PeopleSupport your starting pay is 12T, and after 6 months (if you last that long), it turns in 15T. That's your basic, entry-level gross income. Of course, with night diff you get around 8T each pay day (and take note, that's NET pay), and with overtime and holiday pay you can get as much as 10T each pay day for your net pay. That's more than what some people get for their gross monthly income. Yeah, I've been blinded by the money. But you have to understand, my career goals were clear to me even before I got my first job. I'm only going to be working so I can save enough money to start my own business. Once my business gains ground and I'm more or less financially stable, then I'll be a college teacher. I've always wanted to teach college, specifically at UP (because that's where I graduated). Quite frankly though, I don't think UP could pay me as much as PeopleSupport could. Which is why I'll need a business on the side if I want to maintain the lifestyle I've become accustomed to. The only way I can think of to gain enough capital quickly enough to start my own business is if I work at a call center.

So there. I respect the opinion of those who totally hate call centers. I was one of you not too long ago. But hey. Work isn't everything. I think part of the reason why I made peace with my job is because I've shifted my focus to other aspects of my life. I've started dating again, I've started reading literature, and (since my rest days are thankfully Friday and Saturday nights) I've been able to see my friends more frequently. Yes, the work sucks, and it definitely isn't normal, but I've come to terms with it. Hope you CSRs out there come to terms with it to. Otherwise I hope you find work that you truly deserve and enjoy...

PS: There was a PExer asking if it was better working in PeopleSupport or in Etel. Well, you might earn more at Etel by like a thousand bucks or something, but at PS we've got no dress code (just as long as you don't come to work naked), and once you're a regular employee you get 15 days sick leave and 15 days vacation leave each year. At Etel you only get 12 days, and that's COMBINED sick leave and vacation leave. So compare 12 days off with Etel to 30 days off with PS... And from what I hear from friends who've been at Etel for over a year, PS definitely has a friendlier crowd --- as long as you don't work for the travel client.

... wow, goodluck. this is kind of weird, but -- i was called to start my training last Nov 4 -- but due to some problems with resigning processes at my current job, I didn't make it to that date. <Present job required resigning employees to take at least a month notice>

and so, since there isn't any schedule yet, as to when the next batch will start, i haven't resigned yet :confused:

HR told me they'll contact me once they get the sked for the next batch... after reading Pointless' post, I wonder why HR didn't contact me? Do you guys think I'm still "in" -- that my application is still effective?

:shrug:

I really want to work for PS :( :(

[cheeekz21]

can anybody tell me how PeopleSupport recruit CSRs? what happens after the phone interview? panu *** exams? how many interviews after u pass the exams?

Thanks!

[boyong]

pros and cons in working for etel and ps:

ETEL
pros: higher pay (a thousand or two more than PS)
mabilis ang response ng hr
mabilis din ang recruitment process (my friend got hired the day that he submitted her resume)

cons: less sick / vacation leaves
ang shift sked VEEEEEEERY erratic (my friend's sked changes day to day. there came a time na everyday iba ang shift niya. kahit restday niya pinapapasok sha dahil may absent sa team niya. di ko alam kung ganon pa rin ngayon)
mashadong wide ang gap between management and CSRs
may dress code
napaka-taas ng turnover (maraming nag-reresign bec di na nila kaya yung erratic change in sked. biro mo sometimes everyday)

PeopleSupport
pros: high pay (12T starting. after 6 months, 15T. if you get promoted, add ka ng 20% [this is just an estimate] sa salary)
the only corporate company i know that has playstation n billiard table. (they have cable tv din)
may sleeping room sila
management makes it a point to get close to the CSRs and even to their friends (would you believe that kahit hindi ako empleyado don i get invited to company events. pinakilala lang ako ng friend ko sa isang american vp during one of my visits to their office. i don't think they did that to woo me to join them kasi they haven't invited me.)
atmosphere is very positive.
loose dress code (may isang bading akong nakita na naka-****** shorts at sando don... at shempre ang mga babae, thongs galore... under low rise jeans mind you... yum yum :D. pero matino naman ang porma ng mga tao don. hindi bastusin. pwera na lang don sa bading
:D)
supervisors are given the chance to interact with the client. my friend who's a supervisor gets to run the show in meetings with VPs / Presidents of their clients. (supervisors are exposed to big bosses there. not just team managers, account managers, operations managers, etc...). i sat kasi with him in one of his conference calls. the people on the call naman don't know that i was in the room.
as much as possible, change in shift happens every two months.

cons: matagal mag-respond ang hr. (FYI, sa 1000 applicants, 1% lang ang nakakapasa sa PS)
matagal ang recruitment process
hindi convertible to cash ang unused Sick / Vacation leaves

that's it. yung mga sinulat ko based sa mga sinasabi sa akin ng friends ko who worked in the said companies. sabi nila karamihan ang mga taga-etel lumilipat sa pipol kahit slightly lower ang salary. pero they haven't heard of anyone that transferred to etel from PS. (siguro meron din pero konting konti lang siguro). and yung iba kong comments sa PS , based sa observations ko when i was in their office, and during their functions.

BTW, i forgot to mention that sa PS lang ako naka-experience na sabihin sa mukha ng isang VP na "you're such a *****" ng isang CSR. siyempre this was during one of their functions where everyone is in a relaxed mood, and the CSR meant it in a joking manner. pero kung gawin mo yan sa ibang VP kahit na pabiro, nakow lagot ka. sa ibang company, kahit na gimik dapat pormal pa rin pakikitungo mo sa mga bosses.

ayan, sinulat ko ang mga feedback ng mga kaibigan ko about the call centers. sorry at hindi ko nasali ang sykes. wala akong kilala don e.

good luck sa mga nag-apply sa etel at ps!

I was from PS, and my contract just expired a few weeks ago. It's really fun working there. Very positive, laidback, and open ang vibe. Saya ng mga tao.

Very friendly and accomodating mga tao sa floor. Also, you get to be friends with the management. PeopleSupport is a relatively young company, so ibang mga managers dun, nasa mga early 20s lang. Even the top bosses from the States are friendly.

PeopleSupport's clients are high-profile, big-time companies in the States, just like the IT client that I worked for. And in response to those who belittle the work of Customer Service Representatives, d mo masasabi na "telephone operator" ka lang pag nag-work ka dun. Try working there and you'll see how tough and demanding the job is. Napudpod ang brain cells ko while working there because you really have to study or at least review everyday. Highly-motivated ka mag-work kasi you try to represent that company the best way you can.

The company also boasts of the latest in IT technology. I think PS will be getting the latest from avaya.

Ganda rin ng environment sa loob ng office - relatively clean, spacious naman and ergonomically designed yung mga cubicles (di katulad ng mga ibang call centers na nakikita ko na hinahati pa sa dalawa yung work station), and always clean yung wash rooms (very convenient and sarap gumamit). Nandun din yung usual free coffee, tea, etc and tv viewing na karaniwan sa mga usual call centers. Yun nga lang, san ka ba naman makaka-kita ng company na may and sleeping room, and playstation and billiards sa rec room :)

As for the salary, ok na rin siya, kahit na sabihin na mas maliit siya ng konti sa etel. Nababawi naman din kasi yan sa overtime. And just like what ZephyrInTheSky wrote, there are indeed a lot more benefits, especially sa leaves. Besides, marami ring opportunities na nagkaka-cash incentives ang mga employees.

I also ask my friend from etel just to compare, and she says that although medyo mataas ang salary niya sa akin ng konti, she's not as happy or as contented as I am. Kaya i think it's still more fun (and worth it) in PS.

Sa mga People eReps na makakabasa nito, esp those who work for the IT client notorious for its irate callers, Hi! and Good Luck sa inyo! ;)

[thehitman]

Wow, lots of happy PS reps! :handsdown:

[electrophlegm]

hey guys...

i'm thinking of applying at PS... could anyone give me their contact number, or an email address at least?

thanks.

[boyong]

the number i dial to reach my friend there is 8858000. i believe that's the trunkline. as far as the email address is concerned, i have no idea. try their corporate website. www.peoplesupport.com. good luck...

[ZephyrInTheSky]

applicants@peoplesupport.com

[Johnston]

geesssssh.

i had my phone interview a while ago. di ko in-expect na ngayon ako patatawagin.

ewan ko lang kung ano magiging resulta.

[thehitman]

PeopleSupport is badly in need of new blood. If you pass your resume in the morning, chances are, you'll get a call in the afternoon. So for those who are still interested, feel free to send your resumes. :bounce:

Geez, I wonder why I keep doing this, considering I don't get any commissions for my plugs.:confused:

:cool:

[Altariel]

do they have internships in peoplesupport? :) i really want to work in PS even though im still an undergrad but im not sure if they accept interns.. :)

[thehitman]

Yes, PeopleSupport accepts interns/OJTs, but only on a demand-basis. You're free to pass your resumes of course, but you will be called only if there is a need. Right now we don't have a need for OJTs...

:cool:

[bushi_princess]

hi! i'm quite interested in working in a call center specially in people support. do they still accept applicants? i just graduated last may. how and where can i pass my resume? what if i send my resume through email? will i get response from them?

[Una_dagmar]

Hi, guys!

I'm just so glad that PEX is back. Anyway, I'm working at ETel right now and so far, it's been great. I do have my complaints, but these are regular stuff that reps whine about anyway.

I'd like to ask the reps at PeopleSupport or at least their friends perhaps to update information given here about the company. I could give some updated basics about ETel:

- starting salary is 10-12k depending on what program you're in
- transpo allowance of 1k every month (add'l daily of 100 if you're shift ends or starts anywhere b/n 10 pm to 5 am)
- training bond is from 6 months to 1 and a half year
- higher holiday pay (up to 150% of basic pay) and 30% night diff.

This is as far as I know. The people are generally great!

So what's the score with PeopleSupport?

[Ivan_Novski]

goodness!

a month ago, i was considering of resigning
from my 9-5 job. I thought of applying at
call centers. There's an atttraction that lures
me to work on call centers even though it is not my line.

I think I would like to join PS.
Heard nice things about this company.
What are the requirements ba? skills?

Very strong command of the english language and knowledgeable in internet usage. Everything else will be taught to you once you are accepted.

:cool:

[bushi_princess]

hi! do peoplesupport still accept applicants?

[thehitman]

Yupyup! I've seen new batches every Monday for the last five weeks. :)

:cool:

[Ivan_Novski]

[thehitman] - you sound like a SPY! hehehe! :p

[Una_dagmar]

How's compensation and benefits there?Like, do they give the salary on time, or is there a delay of like a month or so?

I would've been at PeopleSupport a few months ago but HR called in too late. I had a job then and I was too stupid to leave that mediocre job back then. I'm happier working at a call center instead of a regular 8-5 job.

[thehitman]

Two and a half years already, and I yet have to experience delayed salaries. :)

The night differential rate for GY reps is much higher than the industry standard, so if you work on the GY shift, you will definitely earn so much more. I don't think I'm at liberty to discuss everything else though. But I think what I've written will suffice.

:cool:

[berdy]

any PS people or former employees here who knew JB Gamboa? just curious whatever happened to this guy because we've lost contact ever since i resigned in PS. i guess just send me a PM.

[ilove323]

Please let me know the advantages and the disadvantages of working for people's support...I will be doing a test tomrw there and im still having second thoughts...Besides the money and stuff any other infos I can get pls post it here.

[DukotKing]

Nasa PS pa ako ngayon. Sabi ng SME namin na si Franz Gerardo, bakla raw si D****L S******G ng HR. Loko tagala yun! :D

[cmax]

ilove323, as with any other callcenters that cater to american clients, you will be assigned to take on different shifts, mostly on graveyard.
as with PS' advantages, you have a lot of benefits especially when you get regularized. disadvantages. hmmm... i can't really point out one. are you referring to the company it self or working on a call center?

[thehitman]

Tough.

Advantages.
- good starting pay
- lots of young people (22-26), friendly too
- vibrant environment
- open-door policy
- hardly any sales involved, more on customer service and tech support

Disadvantages
- shifting schedule
- it's not that easy to file a VL due to coverage concerns, but if the lead time is good enough, you won't have problems
- lots of pressure, both from within and without
- it can get boring at times

:cool:

OO nga eh. Mayabang kasi. PS ka pa ba ngayon?!?!

[neth_row]

Now is the perfect time to join PS. They have a new account, which means if you're in the first two or three batches and perform really well, chances are you'd get promoted Supervisor for the succeeding batches. I dunno, maybe the HR people are just saying this to entice people to apply :lol:

[berdy]

hindi na...para sa akin, I finally saw the light :D

[duanerdude]

ano ba opening sa peoplesupport ngayon? sabi nila kasi ang opening lang nila for travel client? wala na bang iba? how about sa tech support department nila?

i work for link2support right now...at supot siya. gusto ko na nga lumipat sa iba like peoplesupport.

totoo ba na libre yung beverages nila sa vendo like Accenture?

yung mga e-reps naman diyan, reply naman kayo please.

hirap kasi mag-follow up, lagi busy yung phone or wala sa table yung mga HR people.

[wishywashy]

-- i heard from a friend that there are some opening sa tech nila. why don't you just submit your resume sa office nila:?:

[mauve_2002]

gusto ko mag-work sa call center.:hmm:
i work in research...boring na....
i want to shift in careers...

This new account has just taken in about 90 people in the last three weeks. It's an indication that it's a big client. Promotions for supervisory positions are inevitable. With 90 people (and more to come in the next few weeks), that's at least 6 supervisors and one team manager in the next 4-6 months. So yes, it would be a good time to join PS. And aside from travel client (I wish people would stop posting the names of the accounts/clients), this new account is also in need of new reps.

:cool:

[7thpawn]

what line of business does this client engage in? i'm not that good in numbers so i try to shun from insurance/finance clients.

[neth_row]

I know hehehe isn't that part of the non-disclosure clause thingy? Errr, the new account is somewhat related to the Credit business. But there's no numbers involved. And even if there was, PSU (that's the Training Dep) makes sure that you know everything that you need to know regarding the account.

[berdy]

TOTOO! 6 months din ako nabakante nung nag-resign ako at medyo bumaba confidence ko nung iniinterview ako. pero nasa tao din naman yan...

[livs]

I just had my tests, interview and simulation today. The guy that conducted the interview said that my chances of getting hired were pretty good and that they would call me before the month ends. Does this mean I'm assured of a job already..... or do they say this to all the applicants? Matagal ba talaga ang waiting period between the interview and the start of the training? Do they inform you ba if you failed the interview or simulation, or do they just not call you? I mean, do they do that? Say they will call, and then yun pala hindi ka nakapasa?

[neth_row]

Just keep your communication lines open, livs (home phone, cellphone, whatever). HR really sends you home after all those stuff, because they have to do reference checks as the last part of the recruitment. So better make sure that the references that you gave them will be available for HR to contact. Good luck!

[Melian]

neth row, are you talking about STC as the new account of PS? alam ko nga it's in the credit business.

Anyway, your list of advantages is really impressive. Makakalimutan ko ang mga disadvantages. Bearable naman sila. I can survive shifting sched and even boredome. :lol: ;)

HR sent representatives to DLSU's job fair last thursday so they might prioritize the resumes they got there. Give them two weeks to act on your application. :)

Although I didn't make it, I was still grateful because of the experience. That was my first time to apply for a job kasi.

[domdidomdidom]

hellow to all! I'm a former PS employee and contemplating on going back to the company. Been thinking about it for a while now but still can't decide. BTW, I'm from the TRAVEL Team. Anyone from travel team here? :)

I called HR yesterday and was asked to submit an updated CV. The HR person also said I would have to go through the same process as a new applicant but "not that stringent" anymore.

I'm planning to apply at Convergys and APAC. Is PS better than these 2 that I have mentioned? Anybody who has an idea?
I'm still going to apply for other jobs this week but if I really can't find anything, 90% I'd go back with PS :cool:

phone interview - involves role-playing where you will be a CSR and then a situation will be given. no matter what happens, be alert. even if you're not talking to a real customer, it can be tricky

internet quiz - learn what thos acronyms mean

english exam - like i said, good luck!

typing exam - make sure you can type with a speed of at least 30 wpm

as for the interviews, just be calm, confident, and market yourself as much as you can. focus on your strengths. and be honest. hr people here conduct ref checks so make sure the people you put on your resume are people who know you well, and people you can trust. and please don't put your mother or your relatives or friends. place the names of your former teachers, guidance counselors, employers (hr and direct supervisor), etc. you won't get a job offer if hr can't contact at least one of your references.

Hitman, I feel so st*pid..... I think I failed the role-playing, naunahan ako nga kaba (tapos jingle na jingle nako and ang ginawginaw). Men, bad trip talaga, eh that's what I do in my former job, handle irritating customers... bad trip. This st*pid thing I did is one in a million!!!! If I take the test again, surely I'll pass with flying colors!!! Naiinis ako, minsan talaga if you are over confident (or if you feel you are), palpak ang result! BAD TRIP!!!

I passed the exams, typing exam and the interview. I guess they were impressed with me - not being boastful ah :-). Kaso mukhang sumabit sa role-playing. Sama talaga ng loob ko.

The HR told me that I will be receiving a call within 2 days (to discuss what's next). What you think, negative ba ito?

[LivinNLovinIt]

hi was just wondering, what's the typing speed requirement of the company??:) thanks:)

As long as your English was great during the role-playing, your chances are great. Training will develop (or redevelop) your confidence and calm when handling irate callers. Call in two days? It's a good sign, imo. Just wait for their call. If two days pass without receiving a call from them, you can make a follow-up.

Typing speed should at least be 30 wpm.

I just underwent training for one week, including one graveyard shift and a 'nesting' period. Problem is.... that was almost two weeks ago. Work Force still hasn't called me about the schedules. Anybody know anything about what happened to PeopleSupport's new account?

[neth_row]

That's odd. Are you sure you aren't supposed to come in on a particular shift? From what I know after nesting, you're supposed to go live already...the new account is currently live.

They said that Work Force will be calling us. I'm still waiting for their call. I'm one of the part time ereps for the new account supposedly. I've been checking my email account with Peoplesupport and so far I haven't read of any new 'spikes' with the new account. So I think I'll just call Work Force next week to make sure. Maybe I didn't pass the training?

[piQuAnT]

hi livs! if u didnt pass the training, they would have told u that on your last day of training/nesting. yes,please verify your sked with the workforce.

hello dwein_coolblue!! EB tayo dito dali! hehehe...meet mo muna si thehitman tas ako naman! dito lang ako sa jg. :)

Your friend has to go through the entire process again. Submit resume, wait for schedule of exam, interview, all that. AND. He should have left the company in good terms before.

Yes, we accept part-timers. Send your resume online at applicants@peoplesupport.com.

If you have applied and failed, you can re-apply only after six months (during which you can improve your credentials or at least improve your skills). The exam has not changed, and has never changed. So, for those who applied but failed, try remembering the questions that you encountered. Sorry, I can't provide more useful tips on the actual contents of the exams; it's been three years since I took them.

One of our tech clients has requested for additional manpower. Looks good for that account. In response to their request, PS will have a job fair this coming friday and saturday. Full details (http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=140829).

sino ang trainer nyo ngayon, dwein?!? si FJ pa ba? andyan pa ba si KY? or si JE? kaya nyo yang training for the travel team. favorite part ko dyan yung memorization ng airport/city codes and yung blank US map... hehehe!

-----------------

LOL! kuhang kuha mo pa yung intro!

Si hazel po. Why did you leave? Transferred to another account? Yup, na-pass ko naman yung codes exam. Sa tools na kami. Exam tom. Whaaa!!!! :-)

[LanaLang]

I know Hazel. We used to be in the same shift. I left kasi nagkaron ng politicking noon, saka biglaan yung downpour nung volume and bagong responsibilities. Madami ding nag-resign after I did. More than a year na din akong wala sa PS. I still have friends there, most are TLs and SMEs. Meron din sa QA. Ayun lang.

Ang pinakamahirap na test ninyo will be for Worldspan. Dun ako natutong mag-yosi... sa sobrang STRESS. May mga ka-batch na after years na hindi nagso-smoke, bumalik sa pagyoyosi dahil sa Worldspan! Hehehe! Ingat ka dun. Aral ka mabuti. I suggest you take down A LOT of notes during Worldspan.

[AiSugiyama]

Hello ulit LanaLang! Wow, pareho pa pala tayo from travel team. Sino mga ka-batch mo? Baka magka-batch pa pala tayo..hehehe
Anyways, ang dami nang bago sa PS. Andun pa din si FJ pero matagal nang wala si KY, in fact nauna pa sya sa akin umalis. I know Hazel, it's nice to know trainor na pala sya...also JE i know this guy, he's nice.

I wuz from PS din and resigned for the same reasons you mentioned. However, before trying it out sa AIG-BPSI, I was considering to go back again at PS...so I took the exams and had an interview pero I didn't know na when they said ASAP as in start na ka agad talaga! It was surprising kasi when I applied b4, it took them a month to process everything pero I guess advantage na rin ***** that I was a former employee....the thing that "sucks" is that they wanted me to start with the same salary as I had when I was a newbie, I tried to reason out that I was regularized already and receiving 15T++/month. Well, they said I will be assigned in a new account (tech daw) and I have to start again. It was totally crap so I defer my application for a couple of weeks and buti nalang I got in nga sa AIG.

IMO, a lot of good people had left PS with reasons that could have been avoided or remedied. On the other hand, good thing there are still some good and smart people left working there. I hate to see PS going down the drain in say... a few years from now just because they let all of their good people go. Well, keep cool dwein_coolblue and hope to see you LanaLang. Cheers!:)

[dwein_coolblue]

Hmmmmm.... the reason why you guys resigned is because of stress and politics? Di naman nawawala yun sa mga company. Sana kayanin ko.....

Dami nga nagreresign, kaya tuloy tuloy ang hiring, every week may bagong batch.

Just PM me for things(or persons) that I have to..... you know, iwasan or wag gawin. Heheheheh, kailaingan ko kasi ng work, hirap buhay ngayon! ;)

i think a handful of the other half are still there, either as SLs, PSs or SMEs and a few have transferred to other accounts.

my boss now, a former ps analyst, said that tech client pulled out their voice support from ps but left their e-mail support.

anyways, if there are still tech client folks out there, regards and the best of luck!

cheers.

Please refrain from writing the names of the PS accounts/clients.

[mauve_2002]

does any1 know
margaux, janet and JC? :)

[dyas]

we're undergoing training and we're almost done... some of us are having second thoughts coz some of the reps that we've talked with are planning to leave... (planning lang naman)... are we doing the right thing? we're having fun, really. and i like the fact that i'm learning new things... but... there's just this "but"...

[thehitman]

I'm curious with this "but". Care to share it here, or PM it to me?

:cool:

Ano bang client ninyo?

[dyas]

can i say the client name here? the biggest client.

[thehitman]

Biggest client? Hmm, that would be travel :). What about them? And please don't state the names of our clients on this thread.

:cool:

[dyas]

i just answered DukotKing's question about which account. no biggie. :) btw, just sent you a pm hitman. thanks!

I agree with dyas. I hear lot's of things from vet reps. Yes, there's this "but" in my mind also.....

[thehitman]

If your and dyas' "but" is similar, don't worry about it. :)

At any rate, you're free to PM me so we can discuss it.

:cool:

[dwein_coolblue]

I'm just curious. How come that in other call center threads here in PEX they have many posts from employees, venting their feelings on work, supervisors etc. Dito wala. Does this mean PS people are happy? Or konti lang talaga lang members na from PS?

What say you thehitman ? :D

[dwein_coolblue]

oh btw, thehitman, i am still of thinking what to put in my PM. :-)

[thehitman]

Most PS people are happy, imo. And why not? Environment is great, atmosphere is great, working conditions are great, and the people are great. HR people are doing a great job keeping the employees' morale at a high level. I guess it's the accounts themselves that cause problems. Especially travel :glee:. The (domain) tech client used to give us problems, but now the volume has gone down to a bearable level so the reps are happy. ISP tech, credit, and the gen team have really low mortality rates.

:cool:

[sixpencer]

a lot of call centers are trying to copy PS in the way the reps are managed. there's this one call center that used to have a business attire policy but got rid of it because they saw how PS reps are more relaxed and, therefore, productive. but it's way more than that. you can really see that management is always looking for ways to attend more efficiently to the reps' needs.

overall, working in PS is not like working at all. it's really like college only with a more stringent schedule adherance rule. just make sure you follow that and everything else management will help you improve on. granted some companies pay a little more but you will never get from them the same kind of vibrant atmosphere and pampering PS gives its reps. you can quote me on that.

[dyas]

yeah sixpencer. my batchmates and i really feel lucky that we got in PS. it's a lot of fun. super fun actually, we never felt like we didn't belong and people are just so kind and accomodating. we know coz we always bug them and they don't really seem to mind. they even entertain us and answer our questions and give us tips... helpful tips pa!

we're worried though about our first time on the operations floor. we'll be done with training in two weeks then we'll be taking calls... nervewracking. :sweatdrop:

maybe PS people really are happy folks... :hippie: parang no worries... aliw talaga sa PS... join na kayo! hehehe... :bookworm2:

[neth_row]

Nah, don't worry about going live. The transition from classroom to floor will help you with your worries. Once you make your first call during nesting, you'll be okay *okay*

I posted one 3 years ago, about our dept. in my company. I almost got kicked out coz someone form here brought it upstairs. We got traced(coz, we did it at the office-stupid noh?) and then summoned afterwards. From that day I put myself in exile from PEX. I just signed in a few weeks ago. You guys are just lucky to be in a good company.

[dyas]

haha... (not at your expense leftwinger ah.)

dapat pala super careful ako with what i post here... i don't think i'd be able to post here pa when we start taking calls kasi we'll be busy plus we can't coz they, you know, have ways of keeping track of what you do... in a good way... (uy, careful siya...) :)

:bookworm2:

[00c3]

is it true that there are certain repressive rules here in PS, ie relationships within the office? or is just a sup's discretion?

[dwein_coolblue]

batchmate dyas! sipag mag post ah!

[thehitman]

Repressive rules? Haven't heard of any so far. I know of sups who have/had romantic relationships with co-workers. No big deal, as long as it doesn't affect their performance, and their co-worker doesn't receive special attention (leniency on breaks, better schedules, being more receptive to accepting sup calls, etc.)

dyas: Feel free to post anything about PS. Well, except the clients' names, of course.

:cool:

[dyas]

maglilim-lim na naman tayo!!!! i'm scwared... :sweatdrop: :ayaw:


:bookworm2:

[kwachi]

dyas: no need to be scared if you know what you're doing. Sipag mo magpost batchmate!

[00c3]

are you sure? coz i heard of circumstances when lovers are prohibited to seat beside each other.. and i do not understand why. well i really hope you are right hitman

[00c3]

one thing more, can we write a petition to change the faucets of the washrooms? hirap gamitin eh!!!

[thehitman]

Lovers prohibited from sitting beside each other? Ahh yes, I've heard of that, though I don't have the specifics. I think that's an exceptional case because that kind of situation would result in lovers paying more attention to each other than to their calls since they are seated so near to each other. But apart from that, I know of sup-eRep relationships within the same team and I haven't heard of any steps that were taken to separate them.

As for the faucets, well, that's beyond PS admin's control. If you wish, you can write the building administrator (Philam). :)

at least you guys still have access to this site from the office, our IT blocked the site when similar threads were created in the forums that time. siguro konti na lang nagpe-PEX sa company namin. ;)

[sixpencer]

PS does not have any rules against romantic involvement among co-workers. As long as the couples don't act like teenagers arguing in the hallway and making a scene :lol: then it's okay!

[cmax]

according to some people, it seems that the management is going to implement some rulings about romantic involvements in the office. di pa nga lang niroroll out but it will be soon. hmm... totoo kaya ito?

[dyas]

*paw* *paw* *paw*

waahhh!!! hope they don't block PEx... hehe... malaking probability coz almost half of our batch does PEx every single day...


ooohhh... chismis ah... hmmm... aliw naman yun...

:bookworm2:

[thehitman]

They did block PEx for a few weeks last year, but for some strange reason, we got PEx back. Maybe it's because half of IT are PExers as well. Whatever the reason, I'm just glad we got it back.

Rules on romantic involvements? This I got to see! :bounce:

:cool:

[dwein_coolblue]

huh, do we have romantic involvements here? Parang wala ako makita!!! kasi most if not all, slave ng call master!!!! no time for .... you know..... :-)

[thehitman]

Yes, we do. A lot of people just know how to be discreet. ;)

:cool:

[SUTIL]

hello...well, i got a job offer from PS and was told to start the training on the 15th (sept)...nde pa ako pumirma sa contract since I am still employed...though matatapos na ang contract ko with them on the 23rd. nagulat nga ako coz during the interview, i told them that I can start working for them on the 30th o kaya by october na. they said they wud call me this week pero wala pa ring tawag. I am kinda worried baka nde na nila ako mahintay :( I'll be assigned to a new tech account, mejo kabado nga ako kasi bago sa akin *** gagawin ko.

btw, i have heard na maganda nga sa PS. though i am still having second thoughts dahil baka eventually ma-bore ako sa job at mawala *** programming skills ko. Well anyway, i want to try something new. honestly this is my third time applying in PS..*** first two nde ako ntanggap..***** naman mukhang masasayang pa *** opportunity... :(

is that so? marami na bang nadi-distract coz of office romance? hmmm...:p

[dyas]

SUTIL, dwein_coolblue is right. u'll do okay. grab the op! 3rd time mo na pala... maybe this is the right time for you & PS. :)

i'm new. i haven't even finished training but i can say that i really like it here...

plus the HR has perks and acitivities all the time that would prevent you from feeling trapped in an intelellectual rut... so that would be the least of your worries.

try it. this could just be the job for you...

:bookworm2:

[thehitman]

With the launching of the Professional Development courses, PS is now more than just eRepping. And if you're not interested in these courses, you can always ask for more tasks from your supervisors (with no extra compensation of course). Back then, I used to actively contribute to our team's support site, a very useful tool for our troubleshooting activities. I didn't get an extra centavo for it, but it sure wiped out the boredom of my days. :)

i took my test here last february but i started training just this august. so i guess ok lang yun, pero u better call them na when you're ready. syempre it depends na rin sa availability, but i think they need people now.

as for your programming skills, well you have to maintain that on your own. you cant use it here. and ps is not for a lifetime career, specially if you want to pursue programming. nwei, just try to be as productive as you can here, para di ka mabore. hehe.

[00c3]

well siguro nga you have to be discreet when it comes to relationships within the same company.. to avoid issues na rin. kaya lang ang corny naman nun!!!! ehehehee

i wud definitely grab the opportunity..thanks for the encouraging posts here :) pero un nga, miss nica from HR told me that they wud give me a call this week to confirm if i'd pursue or not..pero thursday na ***** wala pa din po tawag

[thehitman]

Ikaw na tumawag kay Nica. Bait naman siya eh, ganda pa. :)

EB, kayo mag-set. Lapit lang ako sa pantry eh, dito ako laging nag-lulunch.

:cool:

[dwein_coolblue]

I agree with thehitman! nica is friendly! and correct, maganda sya!!!!

uy, the hitman, sino ka ba talaga? 4yd batch 53 kami ni dyas..... nag dodouble jack kami dyan...... :-)

[00c3]

hitman... baka mamaya naka-double jack ka na namin! oohh.... exciting!!!


:bookish:

[SUTIL]

yup..ang ganda-ganda talaga ni nica. btw, pede pa ba mag-part time sa iba kahit employed na ako sa inyo? pero nde sa call center ha..

[dyas]

hmmm... i dunno. i haven't asked but i want to. i wanna teach kasi sa pre-school na malapit sa house ko, part time. siguro if u can handle the time and yung pagod mo. baka mahirapan ka nga lang.

syempre walang conflict of interest dapat...

:bookish:

[thehitman]

Yes, you can work part-time somewhere else, as long as it does not in any way affect your performance in PS, does not conflict your schedule here, and it's not in another call center. You just have to inform your supervisor and HR about it. :)

Ano ba mga schedule niyo? Ako kasi AM (regular office hours) eh. Pag alam ko na mga sked niyo, subukan nating mag-setup ng EB. Oh, and I work somewhere here in the WF/IT area. Near the area that looks like an internet cafe :lol::glee::lol:

Bigay niyo sa akin yung callmaster login ID niyo pag tumatanggap na kayo ng calls. Barge ako :naughty:

:cool:

[00c3]

di na pala ko sama sa EB! hehe

[SUTIL]

i am currently teaching kasi...sa college po. e i still want to continue teaching para naman makita kong mag-graduate *** mga students ko.

problem ko rin kasi is the schedule while im on training..kasi they have informed me na iba-iba *** sched e baka mag-conflict sa sched ko sa skul. kaya nde ko pa alam kung tatanggapin ko na ba o nde o kung kukuha pa ako ng load next term o nde na muna.

tatawag na me sa monday kay nica...sana magkita-kita tayo sa PS. thanks po ng marami

You must have mistaken me for somebody else. I'm not from Travel, never was. I first worked as a tech rep for a client that terminated their contract with PS last September 2001. That was when I transferred to my current department. :)

hello po..may tatanong lang sana ako kung pede nyo lang din sanang masagot.

i have heard kasi na the first 6 weeks of employment will be training and every week daw, iba-iba ang sched. can u give me an idea ng mga probable sched per week?

thanks in advance!! :)

sutil, batch ko is still in training. 2 months po ang training. pero yours could be different kasi iba-iba naman po ang clients. and mostly, training is during the am. kami, either 6a-3a or 7a-4a. aga noh? to think na galing pa ako sa bundok ng laguna... hehe. we did have a 9a-6p at the beginning pero 2 weeks lang yata yun. have they called you na to report for training? God bless na lang and kita-kits...
