Differences that everyone notices - how consultancy services enhance your profile

Consultancy components What goes wrong when support is lacking Successful outcomes with outplacement consultancy
Comprehensive analysis of knowledge, talents, experience, know-how, strengths and preferences Work experience from way back, dormant talents and unused strengths are disregarded in the application process while the significance of qualifications and knowledge is underestimated The entire spectrum of personal and professional abilities, strengths and potentials are identified, analysed, compiled, structured and formulated.
Quality of the applications folder The documents are formally correct but lack the personal touch and the right message - they do not grab the reader's attention. Expertise, experience and achievements are presented clearly, concisely and make their mark. The documentation is designed with the target company in mind.
Clarification of professional and personal goals Life goals are often hazy and not incorporated into career plans. As a result, objectives and interests conflict in the medium term. Professional and private goals are established, clearly formulated and prioritised. Professional and private plans converge as far as possible to form a harmonious overall picture.
Identifying suitable future positions Professional goals are derived directly from past events ; applications are usually submitted for similar types of job. Using creative techniques, new, suitable and promising professional options are identified that match the personality and capabilities of the client, and which are in line with professional aspirations and targets.
Exploiting the potentials of the employment market Only reactive searches are conducted on the open job market via the Internet and print media, occasionally using headhunters. A higher success rate is achieved through proactive searching on the entire job market, including the hidden job market; active use of national and international networks, recruiters and headhunters; active job research by SKP.
Written applications The application submitted does not meet the requirements of the advertised position, the rationale is often unclear, while the text is too long and poorly structured. Applications deal concisely and objectively with the requirements of the advertised position and benefit from professional design, clear wording with a precise and convincing description of personal attributes and skills.
Interview The interview suffers from poor preparation, shaky and unfocused presentation and little feeling for impact (use of voice, facial expression and body language). The applicant falls into tactical interview traps. The applicant has practised job interviews with video analysis, can answer key questions precisely and present motivation and skills convincingly. He/she knows the interview traps, can cope with interview stress and assumes the role of a problem-solver rather than applicant.
Settling-in/induction period The new staff member is insecure in dealings with political constellations and in coping with the challenges of people management and new tasks Integration coaching can be provided if needed over the first 100 days in the new job to secure rapid acceptance by new colleagues and quick, concrete results
