JOBSDB IN CALL CENTER EVENT
THAT ATTRACTS THOUSANDS OF VISITORS

JobsDB Phils, Inc. joined The Contact Center Association of the Philippines’ (CCAP) Call Center Conference & Expo 2005, the country’s official and biggest event for the contact center industry, held last August 23 and 24, 2005 at the EDSA Shangri-La Hotel in Ortigas Center.

This mega job fair which focused on the call center industry attracted some 5,000 delegates, guests, visitors, and job applicants.

The two-day event combined an industry conference tackling the major issues and best practices, an exhibit of the latest solutions and services, and a job fair for industry professionals and fresh graduates. It brought together the industry experts, the leading vendors, and the top call centers in the country. It is the first of its kind in the Philippines.

The conference was attended by close to 500 executives and officers from outsourced contact centers and in-house call centers as well as investors and entrepreneurs. Some of topics covered included contact center trends, telemarketing, keys to profitable operations, managing high-performance organizations, workforce management, industry standards, agent hiring and retention, HR outsourcing, effective training for agents and supervisors, CRM, multi-channel solutions, voice communications, contact center monitoring and recording, among others.

The event has been such a resounding success that CCAP has announced plans for the second Call Center Conference & Expo in June 2006.
