My First Day @ DP

Well yday was my first day at DP. And saying that was I excited would be an understatement. This piece would probably be worth showcasing for someone who moves out of the BPO life to another Core vertical.Ok, for my job, I will be taking care of Collections and part of Fraud Operations for 2 of DP's Vendors and would be working out of Bangalore and Delhi. First things first, being able to visit Delhi on a company paid trip almost every month was a welcome note in the work profile.

But this wasnt why my first day was so exhilarating. Professionally, I consider myself a product of the BPO industry having spent over 5 yrs in it and what I saw there and the treatment meted out was an absolute delight.

The office space is small, built with about 30 workstation space and about 3 cabins for the big bosses. Having worked in a BPO outfit where I would any time of the day see atleast 200 people working-this was…different. As soon as I entered the office the house keeping guy greeted me and asked me if I’d like to have a Tea or Coffee. Wow! I cant remember having been asked anything to drink in the last five years except when I’d gone for an interview in a couple of places.Lol.. I had a cubicle designated for me- yes a fixed workstation! And it was all decked up with stationery n’ all…Ahan! Then I got my TP and talked to the folks who were in office- about 5 odd of them. My boss here happens to be someone who I worked with when I had just started working… Lets see what beckons ahead!
