Looking for a job?

Looking for a job, especially in today's volatile market is tough. It seems that everyday companies are going out of business or we are hearing about yet more lay offs. But there are jobs out there to be had and you can find one--if you have the right tools.

Many people have been out of the job market for years and never expected to be looking. What do you do if you found your last job in the Sunday Times? Or if you were recruited into your previous job? Sure, most people know that today most job hunting is done on-line and scouring the newspaper is a thing of the past. But many job seekers don't have a clue as to what their resume should look like, how to prepare for an interview in today's world, how to use on-line business and social networking as a job search tool, how to launch a successful job search and many other aspects of what is now, a quite complex job market. Employers expect more and have their pick of candidates so it is important that candidates know how to navigate the market and stand out amongst all of the other qualified (and not so qualified ) candidates.

Outplacement supports workers who have recently been laid off or who will soon be facing a lay off, by working with displaced worker one-on-one to build the skills necessary to find a new job quickly. There are many aspects of Outplacement but basically, a good Outplacement firm/counselor will be there to support, coach and provide direction to displaced workers at every step in their job search journey.

Outplacement is a benefit that many employers will provide at the time a lay off is announced and pay for the service so that affected employees have support and can get a jump start on getting back to work quickly. There are a number of packages and levels of support the employer can purchase but almost all involve some level of all of the above mentioned areas. At Pinnacle Resource Partners we work with employers to map out a strategy which ensures that the displaced employees have a solid transition plan. We also work with individuals who do not have a sponsoring company but who want to ensure that they are fully prepared to enter the job market.
