Why are so many jobs going overseas?
It is a big question among so many people who are unemployed and cannot find a job because so many companies are outsourcing and sending overseas jobs. So, why do companies do it? It is actually pretty simple, if you think about it. By sending available jobs overseas, such as customer service/ call center representatives overseas, companies are able to get cheap labor, and the companies also get away with paying little or no benefits to the overseas employees. Although, this can pose more problems for the current economy, it is just cheaper for companies to outsource their available call center positions overseas than offering United States residence the opportunity for employment.
