Entrance test for BPO jobs

Aspirants for call centres or business process outsourcing units may soon have to take an all India common entrance test similar to entry tests for IITs, if a move initiated by software industry body Nasscom takes off. Nasscom president Kiran Karnik has said the software industry body is working on an all India entrance test model for job aspirants in the booming BPO industry, which will enable candidates from north-eastern states or Bihar get a fair chance of a career in cities like Bangalore and Hyderabad.
