"The overall rise in call centre and customer support jobs over the past five years indicates that businesses are recognising the rising importance of improving customer experience," said Sashi Kumar, Head of Sales, Indeed India. "It is also heartening to see that the country is a preferred destination for call centres and customer support outsourcing due to its large pool of skilled workers, lower operating costs, and proficiency in English," he added.
