Career Counselling and Outplacement
DLG Career Counselling helps managers and professionals make themselves even more suitable for the positions they hold. Our career specialists will coach them in making the correct and deliberate choices for the future. When you need assistance in an outplacement process, you have come to the right agency. We guide managers and specialists who, for example, due to a reorganization, are forced to choose another career.
Only the best results can be reached for both career counselling and outplacement if the following are considered:
- True personality of candidate
- Their talents
- Their competences
To determine these, DLG makes use of the unique personality and talent analysis as developed by Essentive. This method is based upon choices people make consciously and subconsciously. It is not based upon behaviour and therefore no behaviour tests such as role plays, exercises and assessments are required. This is beneficial as sometimes they could be manipulated. In the outplacement process, the candidate – together with one of our professionals – will take the next five steps which will enable them to find the right new job.
