do u think i'll be wasting my engg degrre on a BPO job?

Yes, off coz.

or i need to wait for an IT job?

What is the area of interest and strength?? I recommend u to wait for a job related to ur hardwork rather than that lead.

how the career opportunities differ in IT or BPO companies?

They dont, its just doind a job which will get u max satisfaction and that is not different from what field u are from.

which has a better prospect financially?

Both, but this BPO's play u dear....

My Funda is that suk as much as money u can from these bpos and go for those high end field related certification and there you are....money..satisfaction...happyness and all.... offcoz one cant get chix hotter than one in these call centers and bpos

any other aspects which shud be considered?

Well buddy, the choice of your job depends on your area of Comfort.

I am a B. Tech in Electronics & Comm. and working in a BPO. I enjoy my work, get a good salary and to sum it up, I am leading a good life.....

I don't have to bother about Deadlines and Promotions.

Within 6 moths I got promoted to the next level, and in another few months I will be the Asst. Mngr. for my process, thereby getting a pay 2.5 times present pay.

This is not my lone story, but I think many of the members will vouch for that.
The only difference in a BPO is that you will not be sent abroad by the company atleast till you grow beyond the Asst. Mngr. Level.....


One word of caution though, working in a BPO is not as easy at it seems. I had the same apprehension that you have when I decided to join a BPO....

Contemplate all your choices and set foot with caution.

Wishing you all the best for your career.

Love,
