ambergis is an excretion from toothed whales, like the sperm whale, consisting of partly-digested fish bones and squid shells. this is often a sign of illness in the cetacean. ambergis is a spongy, foul-smelling mass often the color of dried wheat bread. it used to be worth its weight in gold. merchants drop a few grains of it into their wine for flavoring. but its chief use was in making first-rate perfume and scented candles.

Ambergris - a fancy term for whale crap. It's actually a waxy grayish substance, passed out by sick whales. Usually found floating on the ocean. Used in perfume making, something like preventing the rate of evaporation (have to look this up again).

anyway, Ambergris Solutions Inc. is a call center in ortigas. somewhat new but that's all I know...

Makes me wonder why a company would name itself after crap (even if ambergris is pretty expensive).

actually- Ambergris is used a a fixative in perfume preparations (fixative- something that would make the scent stay)

BTW:

Ambergris Solitions is a provider of customer interaction solutions offering voice, e-mail and web chat outsourcing services.

I think it's a relatively new call center located across the Podium... in fact, so new that their job application process is so disorganized.

Anyway, I saw their ad in the Classifieds a few weeks ago. I learned that they had a job opening for analysts so I went there at around 6pm after work. After browsing my CV, the receptionist asked me to come back at 11pm (later in the evening of the same day) for an interview. So I went back at the said time but I was interviewed at past 1am na. Gusto ko na nga sanang umalis dahil I had work the following day. Ang weird pa nun, ni hindi nila alam na may opening pala sila for analysts. I had to show them the ad clipping. And the guy who interviewed me... jeez, he didn't know what to ask because he was a call center agent and absolutely knew nothing about market and financial analysis. He was nice, though. Anyway, he asked me to wait until 3am for my 2nd interview, but he had to check with an officer daw kung may opening nga para sa posisyon na inaaplyan ko. I didn't think twice. Umalis na 'ko.

By the way, I also heard other applicants' complaints. One was applying as a Training Officer. Kung kani-kaninong call center agents daw siya pinagpasahan sa interview. Madalas nga rin hindi alam kung ano ang itatanong sa mga non-CCA applicants. Others complained about the late interview sked. Minsan pinaghihintay raw hanggang 3am hanggang sa nakalimutan na 'yung applicant, kaya pinabalik na lang the following day (night). 'Yung iba naman, nawala ang resume kaya kapag pinabalik for interview, nagtataka pa 'yung interviewer kung tinawagan nga 'yung tao. Tsk, tsk. Pero balita ko okey naman daw ang pay doon.

Last Sunday, they posted the very same ad.

I knew someone who applied for internship there kasi he called them and they said they accept interns. Ininterview siya and then was asked to start working full time. Tapos nag-explain yung kaibigan ko na internship ang habol niya at naka-specify sa resume at cover letter niya. Then sinabi sa kanya na di sila nagtatanggap ng interns. Ang labo nila. Very messed up ang HR staff nila.

dirklance · Nov 1, 2002, 10:53 PM

hmmm... it seems people have been making rants about ambergris...

yup it's really messed up. i went there because they called me for an exam. and as it turns out it was already and interview. and the interviewer...well she's nice.

Hindi lang HR staff ang disorganized sa company na ito. Oops, I think I'll just shutup.

Jarael · Nov 4, 2002, 10:04 PM

any info on the compensation package once you're hired?

Nocturnal · Nov 5, 2002, 10:09 AM

Ambergris is in Discovery Suites in Ortigas.

It was named as such because the boss or CEO of the company had the novel "Moby ****" as a favorite.

Their office is great in comparison with the other call centers.

They make outbound calls, from last that I know of, I don't know if they have other clients now.

Starting pay ranges from 11,500 to 13,000

I don't how screwed up their business is, what I do know is that their operations schedule was delayed this year because of fiscal problems.
