The month of November is considered special in the Philippines as
Filipina beauties are set to compete for pride and glory in their respective
international pageants while several local pageants are set to make an impact
on their own, and among these that would literally set the standard is the much-awaited
Mr. and Ms. BPO 2017.
What makes the new pageant unique from others is that it is made to recognize
the dedication, hardwork and perseverance of those working in the BPO and call
center industry as the Philippines' new generation of modern-day heroes. From
thousands of call center employees who are greatly interested in joining the
said affair, 20 men and women working in different parts of the country are chosen
to vie for the most prestigious title and for the opportunity to become the
industry's ambassadors who will bring the workforce to new heights.
With that in mind, here is the official list of candidates for Mr. and
Ms. BPO 2017.
