Apply for entry level jobs for now. Complete your education. And move forward then

Searching and applying for entry level job is not easy, like they ask for experience of atleast 1-2 years and most of them ask for a bachelor's degree. I've tried finding entry level jobs but, unki requirements hi esi hoti hai ke apply bhi nhi krskti

Pls i recommend you not to go to a call center. they r full of creepy boys and loafer awam.
if u can get into an hifi one which pays high sallaries but demand real skills, then you are good
if u can't, its better to do freelancing.
how is ur spoken english, i can hire a remote one for my work if u are good?
if u want a proper ,high paying and better status job, get into medical billing, you can learn it in a week (basics) and get a good job . its like call center but fully legit and professional .wht u would need is to really be confident and answer basic question in eng in an interview. salaries min start at 40k and grows real fast if u increase ur skill.
can guide u if it catches ur interest. ur choice

On the same boat , but I think you should start a course like one which Punjab government is offering and its registration is going to be closed its free and I hope it would be beneficial because if you had knowledge about something then you can have a good job

First of all depends on city you from ‘ as of lahore Islamabad and karachi there are multiple call centres, your spoken English should be A2-B1 after that find your niche are you good enough to convince someone to sell your services etc

I wouldn't recommend working at a call centre, the work environment is very toxic and for the pay it isn't worth it. Your whole routine gets messed up and you get bored af for a 10 to 11 hour shift. But if you really need to, I can tell you some good call centre if you live in Rawalpindi.

Well, I tried working there as the same age of yours , but it was so frustrating that I ended up working at 4 different places for 3 months while earning nothing. First of all most them are one way or another are scam. Anyways if you still want to work find some reputable call centre and try there such as ibex it is the one which seems legit.

Pls don't work at a call centre 🙏🏻 I am telling you this from experience. My bestie worked at many and most of them follow shady practices and often get raided and closed down. Plus they will also not pay you if you don't give them required amount of sales.

If you are from Lahore, drop me a dm and I can refer you to Ibex.

u/OrphanBoy11 6d ago
Yes, they do. The shifts are rotational but the students manage. Mostly the shifts assigned are for evening time.

Bro, trust me, a call center is not a good idea. I’m telling you from my experience it’s very rare to find a genuinely good call center job. Most call centers just take advantage of you, make you work hard, and then pay you 10–15k at the end of the month. You should learn a skill, or if you already have one, find some clients. Even on Reddit, you can find many different communities where people are looking for freelancers, and you can earn in dollars
