Client Services

Our range of client services incorporated in our programs is wide and varied. They include assistance in relocating your job, improving your status or earnings, as well as commencing your consulting career, starting a new business, assessing a possible new franchise opportunity or returning to Australasia in the case of expatriates. Our Senior Executive Consultants are equipped to deal with any of these situations, often playing the devil’s advocate to assist you in developing your thinking.

Self-Marketing Campaigns

The journey you are taking in your career transition is simply a step from A (where you are now) to B (where you potentially want to go). It is driven very much by a marketing exercise, requiring a coordinated campaign. We will assist you by developing effective and coordinated marketing material such as resume(s), marketing letters, follow-up marketing documents, invitations to high level networking functions, videoing sessions to improve your interview "success ratio" through in-depth discussion of your career achievements relative to where you wish to head.

We will coach you in the art of selling yourself effectively and will prepare you for your most important interviews, minimising your chances of selling yourself short. This is often done with role plays in front of a video camera.

Access to Hidden Job Market

We place a strong emphasis on assisting you to access the "hidden job market", which accounts for around 80% of all professional and management level positions (Australian Bureau of Statistics). We will work closely with you to develop a structured and targeted approach to the hidden job market and will help you develop the confidence to implement your sophisticated marketing and networking strategy.

We also focus on the many other channels available to our clients - the important recruiter, search and headhunter channels are areas our Senior Executive Consultants are very familiar with. We provide a range of unique tools to assist our clients to penetrate these channels and are often approached directly to recommend suitable candidates for specific roles.

Career Management Tools

You will have access to a wealth of tools that may be necessary to achieve your goal. For example corporate governance updated information and links; Sarbanes Oxley legislation, financial planning with IPAC, sophisticated assessment of numeric skills and modeling, decision making and people skills, adaptability and satisfaction, we will also talk about health where appropriate (Life & Leisure).
