Observing the Holy Week for Outsourcing companies in the Philippines

Being the only Catholic-majority country in Asia, the Philippines celebrates this occasion religiously.

For outsourcing companies, this might not be a good thing. Most of the companies are in a tight schedule and deadlines keep pouring in backlog after backlog.

I know of most call center personnel still go to work during these solemn days. Does outsourcing companies respect local religion and traditions? I'm glad I'm part of a company that outsource and at the same time respect religion. This gives me an excuse to go to the beach. Be with my family. and just reflect on the things that matters most.

Though I'm not a religious person, I still look forward to this event because of the places we usually go to and have fun.

I guest the outsourcing world can actually stop for a while and take time to reflect.

To All Outsourcing Newbies

I attended a seminar on outsourcing yesterday organized by Philippine Global Outsourcing at Fwendz Diner (the place where I.T. professionals hang out in Davao City).

I learn several things about the outsourcing industry and the skills needed to be on top of the industry. The speakers of the seminar was composed of Davao's top I.T. professionals.

These are the speakers and what they talked about:
Ted Padova - Adobe Illustrator and Flash
Marlo Noval - Adobe Photoshop
Christopher John Cubos - Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Dreamweaver

The event was a total success and was overwhelmed with attendees which exceeded the capacity of our restaurant. We hope to have these kinds of events continue in Davao City and learn more opportunities in the outsourcing industry.
