When talents and ambitions no longer match the job requirements, a custom-made individual outplacement program can be an excellent way to change the career path.

Sometimes employees will leave the organisation by mutual arrangement and sometimes by forced departure.

Forced departure is not only annoying to the employee involved, it also often reflects on the organisation.

Possible conflicts may cause misgivings and thus damage the organisation.

Outplacement can offer your parting employee(s) a constructive solution.

Especially when dismissal has nothing to do with the personal performance of an employee (mergers, acquisitions and reorganisations) outplacement is being valued.

After paying attention to the process of accepting the farewell, a thorough assessment will provide an insight in one’s strengths and weaknesses, where that person stands now and what he or she wants to achieve.

On the basis of tests and conversations with the consultant a profile can be made of the desired new job.

The next step is networking and applying for the job. This requires self-confidence, knowledge and contacts.

It also requires experienced consultants and facilities like our web portal.

Outplacement programs assist candidates to use all opportunities and offers chances for a suitable new job.

Turn to the next page for the program in six steps.

1. Introductory meeting

    Intended as an orientation, it does not commit the candidate.

2. A peek in the mirror
   
    An examination into one's stronger and weaker points. An assessment of skills, talents and ambitions and an analysis of the areas which might need   
    improvement.

3. More than coaching

    Besides the personal coaching we organise workshops and lectures where the candidate meets people who are in a similar situation. This helps to
    cope with the unpleasant experiences and paves the way for enhancing one’s network.

4. You can learn to apply for a job

    Begeleiding bij het opstellen van cv’s en sollicitatiebrieven. Training van presentatie- en gesprekstechnieken. Ontwikkeling van sollicitatievaardigheden.

5. The search

    Searching actively for a new job and, among other things, using Slooter & Partners' network of relations, which includes our international colleagues.

6. At the side-line

    Coaching and advising during application procedures, contract negotiations and during the probation period.
