Despite having over 1 year of experience in call center/BPO, as well as having studies and certificates I got rejected for multiple roles for having a heavy accent. (People would describe me as someone with an slavic/russian accent, despite being from latin america)
Honestly, there's NOTHING more important for the BPO industry than improving your accent and I had to learn that the hard way.
Fortunately, there was a recruiter that saw value in me and now I use my free time outside of work to speak with natives as well as practice my pronunciation.
Thank you for all the advice, Ms. Sheina.
I still feel frustrated since this is my first BPO and... its not easy but well. Im gonna keep moving forward. Thanks for the advise. I actually feel its the perfect guide.
I like how Candace speaks, unlike those other call center agents that speak so quickly that it makes them difficult to understand, sound robotic or cold. Blurting words quickly doesn't equate to speaking and communicating in English well.
Thank you so much Ms sheena❤ This was really a big help. I always adore how you speak like a native speaker . But yes it takes a lot of practice to get there .
I’m working in hospitality in Australia. I’m in the process of improving my Aussie accent. Thanks for sharing tips and tricks, Shienna❤︎
@@cecille2341 It’s hard for Aussies to catch my Filipino-American accent, it’s frustrating sometimes so I have to try my best to copy their accent so it’s easy for them to understand me.

How are you now? One month ago when i started to apply on a call center, and i failed twice but luckily on my third times i get hired! Because of these videos.. It helps me a lot.
Hi Ms. Sheena! What TH-cam videos would you recommend for us to watch and learn the American accent? Thank you!
very informative ..thanks gorgy ❤❤❤
Yeah Sheena practice makes us more perfect in mimicking
Great explanation! Your American accent is quite good. Being born here is not a guarantee to speak properly. There are bilingual people who were born here in the USA and they still do not speak English very well as adults which limits their employability options.
Nice lecture. Productive
thankyou so much for sharing Godbless You more
Thank you for this video 🙂🙏
I LOVE IT, SHEENA! ❤❤❤
New subscriber here! I like your accent! Hoping I can acquire it too :)
Galing. Thanks 👍
Good, thank you so much.
Because of your videos I got hired 1 year ago.

Thank u so much maam❤
Any video yo advice us whether We'll bei in a Mock call with received pronunciation for UK BPO
Honestly, having to neutralize your accent is kinda depressing.
I speak 4 languages fluently, as well as having basic knowledge on a 5th one. yet my account manager had me take several courses on accent neutralization because some MONOLINGUAL karen who barely speaks english wants to speak to "someone in america". 🙄🙄🙄
Hi ms. Is it possible for you to create a 'mock call' for a home warranty account? Thank you so much!!
It is not CC related but can you help me ? what should i put on my educational background in cv if i've dropped out of college and only attended 1st semester?
How Can i Get this sentences for practicing my intonation?????
Hiii.. dahil sayo ate nandito nako sa BPO mag 5 month's na hehe .. Going to regular na soon, ikaw, Kuya Reneboy yung pinag aaralan. Pero ngayon nagiging Irate nadin hahaha. Financial account so pag may experience ako, maghahanap ako ng ibang account soon hehe
@@Kwestyon Haha kaso naka Mute 🤣 🔕 Salamat ngayon accent nalang, juskoo tas ibang CX diko maintindihan sinasabi. Ambot nalang jud ay hahaha
This is probably irrelevant to the interview but can you please give me like interview questions when it comes to KPIs like what would they ask in a call center job interview about KPIs? Please i have an interview soon and i would love to get some examples just so i know how to answer.. also i didn’t find much videos about this! Can you link some for me to view?
Now, I am interested much to join the BPO Industry
it there an app to help me improve my English speaking?
Can you make video for genealogy account?
is it possible to be hired kahit po highschool graduate (old curriculum) lang po natapos? :( I'm 19 years old po and gusto ko pong pasukin yung bpo industry..
hi ate naa ko ask ba bisan pa og mag kanga² ko usahay naa bay possibilities na mo improve akoang accent? kay ako te paspas mangud ko motabi hahahaha
Loveeeeeee it ❤
No amount of training would ever do away with my southern accent, its basically built in. I have tried a long time but its built in, like we sound normal to each other but if i talk to someone from new york they can tell its a massive difference. Even if i record myself i sound normal and speak normal English. That be like trying to get a Cajun to speak like a new Yorker its just not gonna happen.
Watchinh from kuwait
Thanks love you
The problem is am 23 years old and whole my life i was subjected to American english through movies, series and games etc and know i am surprised how horrible my accent is.. Is it possible its gonna change after years of how i was speaking
Absolutely. This video answers that. th-cam.com/video/jP9wmggDIJ8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=C1OWGPIJXfNZy3i9
You'll want to implement the Shadowing techique. In that video, i recommend a paid app but you can also do it without.
Hi Ms. Sheena sa inyo po ako kumuha ng tips thru videos nyo po, last year na hired po ako sa bago kong pinapasokan na company. Unfortunately, nag close yung account so ngayon e rereprofile po kami; meron lang po sana ako i ask kung pano po ba sasagutan ang tanong na "WHY HAVEN'T YOU BEEN PROMOTED?. Nasa redeployment process kami ngayon ilang beses na akong na failed. Sa totoo lang kasi 7 years ako dati sa previous job ko tapos hindi ako nag take ng risk for higher position to be honest hindi ako confident dati ilang beses akong nag decline sa supervisor/QA/Trainer na position kasi komportable ako na agent lang na support lang, ngayon kung sasabihin ko to sa interviewer, negative na po sa side ko. Sana po mabasa nyo tong comment na to. Salamat
i spoke to few indian cc agents and they are quite difficult to understand during calls. I understand more Americans no matter how fast they speak. pero obyus din tlg pag pinoy ang kausap ko kht may paaccent sila pag natawag ako sa cc.
What are you using to practice the accent?
I love the cat🤣
Hi! I'm a fan of yours and I really learned a lot... Currently I'm in a healthcare company bpo...
ma'am pwede po ba kayo gumawa ng tutorial kung paano sagutin ang tanong na ito " what makes you stand out among other applicants?" for beginners
Yung interview simulation ko for a high school graduate, may tanong doon na ganito. But wala pa akong video na dedicated talaga sa tanong na 'to.
thank you candies
finally!! 🙌
Cute cat😽
