I understand na responsibilities and utilities push a lot of us to work, but how do you do it? Like motivation and discipline and persevearance?

I'm a fresh grad na currently 4 months sa first job ko pero because of changes sa management and several employees na nagreresign (especially the only HR) I wanted to leave na rin. Yung change rin kasi sa management affects my projects: always may conflict, trying to please technically two different departments while trying to deliver different outputs at the same time. I know na it's not great sa resume when you only stay for less than a year sa trabaho pero I'm actively looking for other jobs and saving what I can ngayon.

Hi po Reddit. Been a silent here sa community for a while and been thinking din na pumasok sa BPO industry.

For context, I'm a graduating student pero I've been working as a Functional Analyst for a tech firm for 3 months as a probi. The pay is above minimum, hybrid setup and very supportive yung manager ko. Sa 5th month evaluation ko malalaman if mareregularize ako pero kahit na ma-offer, I was thinking of declining and trying for BPO. Not sure why here pero marami kasi akong schoolmate na sa BPO unang nagwork, and ayoko talaga sa work ko ngayon.

After reading and browsing this community, and makipagkwentuhan with my mother (she had 20 years of experience kaya sa kanya ako lumalapit pag may work-related concerns), parang moving to a BPO industry is a 50/50 chance. Depende sa line of business and company yung magiging salary, most likely daily akong onsite, possible na nightshift ako as a newbie. Isa sa pet peeves ng mother ko is yung bisyo around BPO employees (smoking, affairs, etc) pero I told her na avoidable naman yon.

I guess I'm posting here to ask if you would recommend working for BPO as a newbie, especially someone na fresh grad with only 6 months of work experience? I'm just waiting for my 5th month evaluation before magapply sa mga opening na nakikita ko.
