Hi, This is Rupal. I am working as an HR Recruiter in a small consultancy in Mumbai for the past 4 months. I have completed my BMS (Bachelor in Management Studies) this year.
I have a small query. I am recruiting for BPO/call centers for all levels and am thinking of quitting my job after completing my 6 months. I have a few questions in my mind:
- Is experience counted for recruiting in BPO?
- Is there any scope for better job opportunities after completing my 6 months in the same field?
I need helpful advice. Thanks.

Dear Ms. Rupal Tiwari,
I'm unable to figure out the basis of your intention in quitting after 6 months. Can you explain to us why?
Do you have a job somewhere else or are you predicting that you may get a job with that 6 months' experience that you would carry? Any occupation has its specific experience. Recruiting is a part of Human Resources, and whichever company you serve, all that matters is your practice and subject knowledge. In BPOs or ITES sectors, they have positions ascertained to the business entity. All you learn in recruiting here is about the job descriptions, clientele, interaction with the candidate while recruiting, etc.
If there is a job where you could swiftly transform, it's up to your decision. However, if you give your best up to a certain time, the next employer wouldn't have a point to raise against your stability. Think twice before you make a preference.
Good Luck!!

Hello Sharmila,
The reason I want to change my job is due to unfavorable working conditions. Another reason is that I work for 9 hours, but at the end, I only receive a salary of 6,000 INR per month. Salary is not a constraint for me, but proper training and working conditions are not favorable, which I am looking for in order to support my career growth.

Hi Rupal,
I am looking at it from a different angle. When you say working hours are 9 hrs vis-a-vis salary is 6k; you are not on a piece rate or working at hourly wages. Training and conditions are not provided, as you justify saying yourself that it is a small consultancy. Of course, in such a small consultancy, you do not expect to have a professional environment.
Coming to your query, you are worried about your experience of recruiting candidates in a BPO. Your experience will be judged by how many candidates you placed, the quality and level of candidates you placed, how you coordinated, with whom you coordinated, what the total revenue you generated for your consultancy was, and your knowledge about the sector.
Precisely, experience is what you did at the consultancy being its employee and not just that you recruited only for BPO.
I suggest you complete at least a year to gain maturity, knowledge, and experience. Quitting a job in such a short span is not beneficial for the company or the employee. Experience equal to or below 6 months is almost considered to be fresher unless you already have an offer in hand.

Dear Ms. Rupal Tiwari,
No matter where you go in this world, you may find yourself in considerably challenging situations as every company has its own share of politics. What truly matters is how you handle and overcome these challenges. If you are willing to put in a little effort, you can gain valuable experience, regardless of facing raucous and strident individuals. Panicking will only distance you from the actions you need to take to learn and grow. Do not overshadow your present by worrying excessively; difficulties may arise later.

Hello Rupal Tiwari,
Let's segregate the points you raised.
1. Unfavorable working conditions
2. Another reason is I work for 9 hours and at the end, I get ₹6,000 per month. Salary is not a constraint.
3. Proper training and conditions are not favorable, which I am looking for my career growth.
How about "defining" the following terms you used according to your understanding:
- Unfavorable working conditions - What, in your view, is a 'favorable' working condition?
- ₹6,000 per month for 9 hours of working and in the same breath saying 'salary is not a constraint' - What is the salary, in your view, reasonable for 9 hours of working?
- Proper training and conditions are not favorable - What do you mean by 'proper'?
A lot would depend on what you want. Frankly, if you have followed any 'friendly' advice that you are wasting your time here, I strongly suggest that you ought to begin to think and act from 'your' perspective, not from what others say.
Like Sharmila Das and Hiral Mehta suggested, please focus on first building your experience with whatever opportunities come your way.
Have you learned everything there is to learn in the BPO segment, which is where you seem to be working now? If your answer is 'yes', then frankly, I don't think anyone can guide you ever since no one can learn 100% in any field, irrespective of the timeframe.
As the saying goes: 'A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.' In your effort to seek greener pastures when you are not ready for it, there's a danger that you may lose even what you have in hand now (the key words being 'not ready').
At the end of the day, it's your career and your choices/decisions.
All the best.
