•          Make sure to provide accurate information about your previous employers, mention the things you have done like projects and achievements. Be very careful with the dates of your employment as most of the company hiring managers is very keen in checking the gaps of employment.
•          Do not provide a portfolio type of CV unless you are applying for a marketing or advertising company
•          Start with a summary of your qualifications
•          Be honest
•          Prepare a cover letter
•         Proofread your CV and make sure you know what is written in there

•          Make sure to wear clean clothes

Be yourself

•         Do not invent stories that might make you sound a liar
•          Be proud of your achievements
•          Say the things you want to improve on

Go straight to the point and do not beat around the bush

•         During interview focus on sharing your strengths and not your weaknesses
•          Be firm with your answers
•          Make an eye contact and be sincere in every word you will say

Show up for the job interview

Most BPO companies would usually conduct initial phone assessment before inviting you for further recruitment process. Remember that it is always unprofessional not showing up for the scheduled face to face interview. Be professional and have the guts and decency to show up!

Practice your communication skills

Most companies in the Philippines nowadays not only in the BPO industry are requiring someone with very good English communication skills. There are lots of ways to improve your oral and written communication skills because everything is now online. Having a good English communication skills will give the edge and will make you sound more confident that you can do the job you are applying for.

Be confident

Be careful with your gestures

Do not hesitate to ask questions

Do not attend the job interview unprepared

·         If you feel you that are not ready, do not attend the job interview. But make sure you are professional enough to advise the recruiter. A simple text or email telling that you are not ready for the interview and you do not want to be interviewed unprepared before the interview schedule will do. Do not decide to just not show up without telling the recruiter. Remember, a candidate who is tagged as a “no show” will lessen his or her chance of getting an interview invite again.
