Outplacement Services

We work individually with outplacement candidates to help them determine the best career path, develop outstanding resumes, utilize the best resources for finding jobs, learn how and where to network, polish interviewing skills, and learn to negotiate the best compensation package.  We can also help outplacement candidates to enhance their marketability with training from computer skills to soft skills.

For all outplacement services, we meet individually in person, by phone or by web conference weekly.  Candidates may also call or write as desired. All programs are tailored to the individual. For example, if the candidate already has a great resume, we would not spend much time on that but would focus the time on how to find opportunities, network, etc. -- whatever would be most helpful to the candidate.  When the formal program ends, we are still available to answer questions and provide support as needed.

All outplacement programs include a DiSC® behavioral assessment, comprehensive report, and feedback. A sample DiSC® report is available by clicking here. This assessment helps the individual learn about environments in which he/she will do best, needs, strategies for effectiveness, and potential strengths and weaknesses.

For a 1-month outplacement career transition program, we generally focus on:
1) Figuring out what is the best next step for the individual
2) Writing a resume that best reflects the individual's strengths and accomplishments
3) Learning to write a cover letter targeted specifically for a particular job
4) Learning where and how to find opportunities, especially through the "hidden" job market
5) Learning how to research companies in preparation for interviews
6) Encouraging progress and moving forward in the job search at all times

For a 2-month outplacement career transition program, we continue the weekly calls and focus the time on interviewing techniques, questions and answers, and practice.  We include an option for the candidate to verify employment, education, credentials, licensing and criminal record through www.myesrcheck.com at no additional cost.

For a 3-month outplacement career transition program, in addition to all of the above, weekly calls, and more time for interviewing practice and feedback, we also spend time on negotiating techniques, improving job skills, and learning how to adapt to a new environment. For 3-month and longer programs, we include our Business Skills Development e-Learning package ($399 value). More information on this extensive e-Learning package is available by clicking here.

We'll take great personalized care of you or your displaced employees.
