Karen Calansingin

I consider myself very fortunate to be working in one of the reputable BPO companies located on one of the most beautiful islands in the country. What better way to live your life than pursue your passion and at the same time enjoy the best of Palawan’s nature? And I must say that I already felt empowered the moment I stepped back into the BPO world with fresh opportunities that await me. Data analytics has always been my passion and I am very happy that I got this chance to pursue this career with Foundever during the global pandemic. I am truly grateful for this opportunity.

It has been 6 months and time really flies when you are doing what you love. I have proudly equipped myself with professional experience and technical skills to have an edge as a woman and prove myself in the technical field dominated by men.

Being originally from the capital, this is my first time working in the region. However I have already noticed early on that patriarchy still exists.

I cannot change our patriarchal society overnight which is still very much alive in this region. On a positive note, I have felt empowered to make a change for I believe that little change is better than no change at all.
