1. You have not finished your studies. You know mainstream knowledge based companies will not touch you.
2. You have just passed high school. Or failed in high school. Reason enough to join a call center.
3. You have become senior, only by age, without any significant experience on any industry vertical.
4. You want to get rid of your present job at any cost.
5. Your MBA/Engineering/GMAT/TOEFL/GRE entrance exam result will be out in two months. Get into a call center for the time being.
6. You have resigned from your present company and will join a new company only after three weeks time. Get into a call center, get the training (that is spending some quality idle time) and leave after three weeks or whenever you feel like
7. You have been inspired by the guy who smilingly appears in a call center recruitment ad saying he has become the VP of the company in three years seven months and twenty five days.
8. You think call center is all about fun, frolic and chicks (pick ups…and drops…free that is)
9. You think it's cool. How uncool it is ask the guys who have left the industry and joined some other industry without any hierarchical or financial gain. How cool it is, ask the guys/gals who have become managers in quickest possible time.
10. You want to polish your foreign language skills, English, Spanish, Polish, French, German etc. Most of the call centers impart heavy duty training on accent, personality, process etc. A similar training outside will cost you more than the total salary you will get here in your short stint.
11. Because you are brainwashed by your peers.

They have also helped to generate numerous jobs in various non-core sectors such as transport, food & catering, telecommunication (voice and data) etc., 10 years back, one was considered lucky if he or she could land up a job with a salary of 6000.
