BPO & Shared Services Practice
BPO hiring is a throughput business, and the metric that matters is not offers released but how many people are still on the floor at day 90. A vendor that delivers 100 offers and 40 survivors has cost the client more than one that delivers 60 offers and 50 survivors. We report on 30-day and 90-day retention on every volume mandate, because that is the number operations actually cares about.
How We Work This Sector
The practice covers third-party BPO and BPM providers, captive and global capability centres, shared services for finance, HR and procurement, and customer-experience operations for e-commerce, BFSI and telecom clients. Volume agent hiring and specialist GCC hiring are completely different exercises: one is a sourcing and assessment pipeline run in batches, the other is a targeted search for process and domain expertise.
For voice roles we assess communication directly, with a scored spoken-English and comprehension evaluation, plus the local-language ability the process actually needs. For non-voice and back-office roles we assess typing speed and accuracy, comprehension and tool familiarity. Neither can be inferred from a CV, so neither is.

How We Screen
Scored spoken English and comprehension for voice roles, typing speed and accuracy for non-voice, local-language fluency where the process needs it, and rotational and night-shift willingness confirmed explicitly
ERP depth (SAP FICO, Oracle, Workday), process exposure at sub-process level rather than function level, Lean Six Sigma certification for process excellence, RPA tooling (UiPath, Automation Anywhere), and transition or migration experience
Night-shift willingness agreed at interview and withdrawn at joining, process claimed at function level only, and a pattern of 4–6 month tenures across call centres
The Hard Parts
We would rather tell you where a mandate is genuinely difficult than run a search that quietly stalls.
Volume BPO hiring sees 30–40% of candidates not turn up on day one, because they hold several offers at once. We over-pipeline deliberately, keep daily contact between offer and joining, and report the drop-off openly instead of quietly re-filling and billing twice.
International processes mean night shifts, which means transport, which means candidates must live inside the cab radius. That constraint narrows the real pool far more than any skill requirement, so we source by pin code against your transport routes.
CVs tell you nothing about spoken English. Every voice candidate we submit has been scored on a structured communication assessment, which is why our client-side rejection rate at the voice round is a fraction of portal-sourced applicants.
A shared-services F&A or analytics specialist in Bengaluru or Hyderabad is being courted by product companies at higher bands. We position the GCC proposition properly — scope, global exposure, stability — rather than running a search that loses every offer on CTC.

How it worksFAQs
Yes. Volume mandates are run as dated batches against your training calendar, with walk-in drives and scored communication assessments in the catchment covered by your transport routes. We deliberately over-pipeline for the 30–40% offer-to-join drop the sector sees, and we agree the batch sizes and dates with your operations and training teams before sourcing starts.
With a structured, scored assessment covering spoken fluency, pronunciation, comprehension and listening, plus the specific local language the process needs. Scores are shared with the shortlist so your operations team can calibrate against their own benchmark. For premium international processes we can run your own assessment tool before submission.
Yes. F&A and record-to-report, HRO and payroll operations, procurement services, process excellence, RPA and transition roles are a distinct part of the practice, screened on sub-process depth and ERP exposure rather than on years. Centre leadership and transition mandates run through our executive search desk.
By treating the gap between offer and joining as part of the mandate. We maintain daily contact, confirm transport and shift logistics, flag candidates holding competing offers, and keep a warm standby list for each batch. We report the actual drop-off rather than silently re-filling, because the only number worth optimising is how many people are on the floor on day 90.
