Is your organization is going through a rough time? And is your CEO asking you to contain costs? Since payroll is usually one of the top company costs, you’ve probably been asked to eliminate some jobs to improve the bottom line.
Outplacement Services
A well-designed outplacement program goes on a long way for both participants and the companies who had to let them go.
By hiring a cutting-edge outplacement provider, aligned with today’s job search trends, you ensure that your exiting employees will find new, meaningful work without all of the stress of going at it alone. This saves them time and money while also helping to protect your company’s reputation during a RIF or layoff event.
The fact is many outplacement providers are living in the past. Their full services are only available to those that live near their brick-and-mortar locations, which can be busy, overcrowded, and ultimately not useful for participants. They use term limits, charge retainer fees, have poor coaching availability, and are so expensive that companies can only afford to provide services to executives, not middle and lower level employees who need the most help.
For industries, like healthcare and higher education, we have extensive experience to further customize our services.
What
do we
have?
Well, that’s simple: we have employed the latest job-search and recruiting technologies to provide the most cutting-edge outplacement around. We work with participants until they are placed. We don’t charge expensive retainer fees for our services. We deliver virtually, meaning we can help anyone, anytime they need it.
By providing personalized coaching and using a technologically-driven approach, our outplacement process gets people back to work faster at an affordable cost.
Our Outplacement Process
1. A Personalized Approach: Eligible participants are contacted within 24 hours by their dedicated career coach. During a one-on-one orientation, the participant is onboarded to our next-gen outplacement platform, and the coach will ask questions about experience, discuss their transferrable skills and gauge future goals to tailor the program directly to their needs and remove any barriers of entry the program participant might have.
2. A Custom Crafted Resume: After onboarding, a professional resume writer will craft a keyword and SEO optimized resume for the client that highlights their skills and is tailored to their job search .
3. Job Search Technology: Careerminds integrates multiple job boards right within our Career Management System, and provides tools and training to maximize participant visibility when applying via applicant tracking systems. Our proprietary Perfect Match software matches participants to jobs and provides keywords they can include in their resume to make them a closer match. Our ResumePromoter tool can then post a participant’s resume on up to 85 different job boards in less than 30 minutes, saving tons of time, and increasing their reach!
4. Networking and Social Media: 85% of jobs are found through networking, so we educate our participants on making the best contacts via LinkedIn and on how to rub elbows at face-to-face events. Careerminds is also the only outplacement company with an internal social network, connecting participants, alumni, career coaches, and recruiters.
5. Personal Branding and Interviewing: We want our participants to see their Careerminds’ program as an opportunity to find their dream job, one that they can excel at and grow in for years to come. We use the DISC profile to help the participant start to build their brand and the STAR theory to help them understand their strengths and what they bring to an organization. Through behavioral based interview training and mock video interview prep, our career coaches prepare our participants to approach all types of interviews with confidence.
6. Until Landing: Unlike every other outplacement provider, we work with clients until they secure a new role. We don’t use term limits that can leave them stressed and without support. Our mission is to take the stress out of career transition for both the company and the client.
