I worked as a TEch Support for Xbox, Microsoft PC safety and DELL.. I missed my american customers! I love them..

[leejaedi]

this is the job i've ever wanted to have. I work in ortigas. As a tutor to koreans. I find it much more interesting though.

[erinpilla]

Amen. I'm actually from France, but I spent like a year in New York. Definitely American English is different from the English I know myself

[Marackis]

you don't fool me Russ. The main reason why americans or people in the west do not work in call centers is because it is a low paying job.

[mrtdrnalx]

true...

but other countries (latin america perhaps) consider these as medium to high payment for a part time job.

[cinderella0576]

well what should i say. i hope more call centers move to the philippines because it could help a lots of peoples who are unemployed especially the talented and newly graduate. and its like the open door for their opportunity in life. pra di naman mababa parati tingin sa pinay kc puro gusto mag asawa puti para maka visa wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

call center jobs..makes everybody lives so easier...

[derlin79]

call centers in the Philippines is one of the agencies who helps pilipino, not only to land a job. But also, to share and show our knowledge. We believe that we are one of the best in english proficiency.

This interview narrates not just jobs but a new alternative for marketing in Philippines.

Sandlin shows how the call center industry is being embraced by filipinos, and its one good alternative, if managed well.

Thanks for all the comments, glad Ces is ok

[ewillis99]

This is a great interview, coming from an American in the Silicom Valley

[russsandlin1]

i think the Philippines and the US are intertwined for sure, and I wish it were a more equal relationship. I think it is moving in that direction.

thank you russ for saying good things about Filipinos. I am a call center agent too and being with this work  is a pride in this country that we are able to help America or perhaps the world. Thank you again.

[benimarux]

dont get offended but i got to say this ... Phillipines is United State's bitch ! so much for independence ....

[derlin79]

Russ knows call centers and I hope he opens another one soon. It is good that he is healthy agian and also good that Ces was released safetly

[sphiney]

call centers in the philippines are giving the much needed help to improve our skills in english even more. hope we could attract those in india too.

[bisdakdiay]

OO nga, our people are more conscious about their english proficiency now more than ever. Some leaders are now pushing for spanish language back in schools. Sana pinahalagahan ito ng system natin noon. Kasi, inherent sa culture natin ang madaling matuto sa ano mang forms of art. Ngayon, pati mandarin ay pinopropose na rin na ituro sa mga schools natin. Maging mas competitive natayo kung ganoon.

[bisdakdiay]

Si Cez Drillon is one of our best hosts, kaya lang dito she's trying to be spontaneous and I think she's struggling to form the questions in English. Looks like she is not very prepared with the questions. I can feel her discomfort at nawawala ang kanyang shine.

[sphiney]

i agree with you. it seems that she was not prepared at all. the questions were very basic i should say.

[eugeneabela]

Call Centers and BPO are helping lots if Filipino's with work.

Good Job. keep it up Russ!
