Short excerpt from a YouTube video (speaker: Scott Empringham) addressing common concerns about accents for offshore workers. The speaker says they test English, argues that the US is a melting pot so offshore English will be on par with others, and suggests offshore workers can capably perform roles like outbound sales, virtual assistance, customer service and other back-office tasks. The voice is conversational and reassuring toward offshore hiring.

One thing that people ask me a lot is what about the accent? You know, they're offshore. They're not from here. You know, we test their English, and California and the US Is a melting pot of all cultures. So I can't imagine, I mean, that their English isn't going to be on par with anyone else's. In fact, I don't hear their accent. But perhaps I'm a little bit biased because I work in this business. But I do think that you can get people that are hungry to do outbound sales calls, to do virtual assistant type work, to do customer service, to do anything that you can imagine. That's a back office thing. Amazing.
