The statistical tools utilized were the Descriptive statistics, and Pearson Product Moment Coefficient of Correlation. Conclusions The following conclusions were derived from the results of this study: 1. The job satisfaction level of call center agents is slightly high. For this reason, call center agents perceive their company as high in factors such as co-workers, supervision and nature of work. Considering the coworkers as the highest, it only proves that call center agents do enjoy social interaction with their peers. 2. The call center agents overall level of career success is in high level. Taking into account that potential is the highest factor, it presents us an idea that call center agents views their job as something that offers them sufficient growth potential that meet their goals and ideals. 3. The result revealed that there is a relationship between the job satisfaction level and the career success level of the respondents. This means that the higher the job satisfaction the higher will also be the career success or vice versa. Recommendations After obtaining the results of the study, the following suggestions are drawn: 1. To have organizational training programs that will cover technical and behavioral aspects which intend to augment the comprehension of the call center agents to the company’s operating procedures. 2. To examine carefully their management decisions and organizational interventions that has impact on their employees’ job satisfaction. 3. To create a satisfying and just reward system for the employees to improve their economic conditions. 4. To evaluate their employees’ career success in terms of learning and growing, not necessarily ascending the hierarchy. 5. To conduct parallel study but using supervisors or managers as the respondents.
