Do Delhi Jobs = Internet Jobs?

Delhi is a hotspot for internet jobs. But it wasn’t always this way. It used to be that having a call center in Delhi & NCR was the norm for many global companies today. In order to meet the growing international demand for cost-effective, customer-oriented call centers, many organizations worldwide were outsourcing these services by setting up call centers here.

Nowadays, in a modern age of internet and computers, it is dot.com companies that seem to be the most successful, as BPO jobs and call centers jobs are now less in demand then they were before.

But what made customer care jobs in Delhi such an attractive option for fresh job seekers? It certainly is not outdated and is largely viewed as an option to earn an extra buck. At call centers the opportunity to make money can be very lucrative as the salary offered with just a graduation degree is way ahead expectation. More to this list is free pick and drop cab, a free meal, attractive offices and a lot of entertainment at times with amenities such as gym facilities (some even have a swimming pool), a nap room, a in-company-hospital, etc. The fact is customer care executive jobs offer great opportunities for both fresh and experienced university graduates.

But for those who are looking to build a long-term career, jobs in BPO’s are not the way to go. Get yourself a job at a regular company with regular benefits, a regular pay package and day-shift timings if you can manage that.

And certainly, jobs in internet companies have been predicted to be – and are catching on like crazy now – the way of the success future. If you want to build a career and last on it for awhile to come, try getting an internet job in Delhi.
