A new career portal “Work Abroad, Live Here” has been launched to provide information about global job opportunities in the industry.

Hernandez said many do not know where to look for jobs that allow them to work in a global environment while living in the Philippines.
“The career portal is intended for students, fresh graduates, young professionals, and experienced workers who want to work for world-renowned companies that provide their workforces financially and professionally rewarding careers. They don’t have to go overseas for great jobs,” Hernandez added.
The Information Technology-Business Process Outsourcing (IT-BPO) sector is aiming to generate 1.3 million jobs by 2016. Among BPAP’s principal target for the campaign are an estimated 517,000 college graduates this year who will look for jobs during the summer.
