HR Challenges
When a company and an employee part – due to a merger, a downsizing, or a complete restructuring of the organisation – problems for both sides arise. The company must consider its options and strategy, and the employees need guidance in coping with the termination.

At DBM in Austria we apply our commitment, competence, and experience to this crucial situation. In line with the worldwide expertise and commitment of DBM, we assist our customers in carefully preparing the termination process, guide employees (the clients) through each step of a structured process towards new objectives, create an effective self-marketing campaign, and teach innovative job search techniques.  We provide logistical support and professional advice in the execution of the search campaign.

Our work is only complete when predetermined goals have been reached. The ideal outcome from the company's point of view is a painless transition process, conducted in a harmonious and conflict-free fashion, preserving the reputation of the company and enabling the company to achieve the performance objectives that have motivated the transition.  For the affected employees, DBM can show the chances and opportunities that lie in a new direction, and how to take them.

DBM's offices in Austria offer the following programs:

Individual Outplacement Services. In the form of one-on-one counselling sessions, participants receive guidance on career review, self-assessment, career planning, CV writing, successful job search methodology (networking, recruitment firms, advertisements, direct contacts, and the Internet), interviewing, and salary negotiation.

During the course of their program, clients have access to individual offices, computers, printers, the Internet, telephones, fax, electronic databases, and company listings as well as a wide range of search and self-development tools.

The following individual programs are available:

Combined (group and individual) programs. In the case of a larger number of released staff-level employees, career counselling is also available in a format which combines group workshops and one-on-one sessions, with one to three months of office usage. Program elements to be covered are the same as in individual outplacement services.

DBM pioneered the concept of outplacement and has been providing job search assistance to employees in transition for nearly 40 years. Our flexible approach and comprehensive resources have brought success to job searchers at every level, in all functions and from every industry. Today our capabilities include a wide range of resources and tools that you can use both during a job change, and also throughout your career. No matter how unsettling a job change can be, it can hold great promise for your career.
