Measurment of Good candidate for recruitment...
In this industry a more experienced person is useless for other companies. Suppose A person had given 3 years to a company and still working on a designation of executive. Whenever he/she tries for a change, he/she found himself in a dark hell.
Interviewers normally thinks him/her a non-performer. They use to ask that in these years you have not been promoted. What do you think about not promoted in last three years?
The interaction really sounds unprofessional.
Think if you found a teacher with 10 years experience, would you love to ask him/her that why he is still not principal of the college.
Would you love to ask a lawyer that why in last 15 years he was not able to get the post of judge in court?
You would love to get medicine from a 10 years experience doctor without worrying about his designation in the AIMS.
In many other professions experience gives you a reputation. But in BPO it is your failure that you had worked as an executive for five years in same company.
I m not able to find out this measurement for a good professional.
Need your help put your comments please...

you are right to some extent...... however the comparison u have made r illogical... doctors, lawyers they r widely known to do their own practice ..u may compare it with other professions like banks or any regular corporate office... where in they don't move u up just because of your seniority... Merit, and skill set matter + networking too...

Good topic to discuss.
Well normally if our senior are not getting separated from company due to any reason. Then we may not get promotion. However i have also seen many Team Leaders got demotion in their designation due to economy crisis and currently they are working as an executive.
If you are working in same company from last 5 years and not have been promoted than its ok. I would see this situation differently like i would say that you are fixed to your job from last 5 years and not changing it. that's good point.
If today my company is doing good business and let say the process on which we are working is also going good than i cannot increase my staff directly without checking the market situation or demand of that particular process.
I have some companies who actually recruited new people and promoted few old people to handle new team. This was i am talking about before the economy downturn. The moment sub-prime market gone down company started laying off people and demoted all the Team Leaders to CSR.
Thanks
