                    [Title] => Low hiring rate among college grads worries RP
                    [Summary] => Less than three out of every 100 fresh college graduates are hired in the business process outsourcing-contact center industry (BPO-CC) each year, raising concerns that the Philippines would not be able to sustain the growth of the $10-billion sector with the dearth of qualified Filipino agents.


Industry data showed that of the 400,000 new graduates who look for work annually, only 11,526 or 2.89 percent are accepted in BPO companies and call centers upon passing the competitive qualifying examinations.
