We Help Businesses Provide Career Counseling and Outplacement Services to Their Employees

Stanley Witkow Associates works with employers when they conduct work force reductions or terminate employees.  Because we come from a corporate background, we understand how and why companies implement lay-offs or terminations and how an effective outplacement or career counseling service can positively impact an otherwise negative situation.

Our services are geared to help the soon-to-be former employees be better prepared to conduct job searches by helping them analyze potential available opportunities, learn how to make opportunities happen, develop compelling resumes and learn the networking and interviewing skills that will make their job searches successful.

Providing career counseling and other outplacement services makes good business sense even when a company is dealing with significant financial challenges which may be causing a work force reduction.  These services benefit not only the terminated employee; their availability also sends a message throughout the organization to the remaining workforce that the company cares about its employees in hard times as well as good ones.

Providing outplacement assistance is a powerful statement for the retained employees that the company cares about them--and it acts as an effective retention tool to dissuade employees from considering other employment opportunities.

Career transition services enhance the goodwill of an employer and help mitigate the risk of legal claims by terminated employees.

We offer a full range of career transition services which are designed to fit within the financial constraints of the businesses which want to provide a meaningful service to their employees.  We provide 1/2 day, full day or longer workshops devoted to resume building, interviewing and networking skills.  We will provide customized programs for specific employees.  We work effectively with all levels of employees, from senior executives to entry-level personnel.  Most important, our services immediately add value to transitioning employees, helping them make a fast and successful transition.
