As the economy dips towards a deep recession tens of thousands of workers are destined to lose their jobs. Not everyone will benefit from an outplacement programme and expert assistance to transition the dark challenge of job loss. The case for high quality, cost effective outplacement is compelling whether you are an employing organisation or an individual.
During more buoyant economic times Career Dovetail have helped thousands of people craft great career plans. Our usual buzz phrase is 'Find a job that you love and you will never work another day for the rest of your life!' During tougher times our clients come to us for help with CV design, interview coaching, labour market research and general self marketing skills.
Our company strapline is: 'Career Dovetail – Strengthening wellbeing by dovetailing more people into sustainable careers.’ Our mission is to get more people into more fulfilling careers and combat the epidemic of job dissatisfaction.
Our services include: 1. Rapid Intervention Corporate Outplacement Programmes 2. Career Coaching adults looking to get more out of life 2. Helping small firms develop Talent Management strategy 3. Guiding young people to shape a motivating Career Plan
We believe there is a powerful correlation between career choices and our potential wellbeing. After 12 years providing career coaching and outplacement consultancy, helping adults navigate ever more frequent redundancies or young people transitioning from education to work, we see remarkably few well-constructed Career Plans. Our most worrying discovery is that up to 90% of the population are either not engaged by their work or in the wrong job altogether!
