High
Tech Online
Career Centre
It's
4:00 in the morning and you can't sleep. You turn on your computer
and find your career management consultant has emailed you some
novel suggestions for improving your résumé and
the results of the online assessment tools you completed the day
before. You get to work.
Career
Partners International (CPI), an affiliate of Dimension 11, recently
launched its "high touch", high technology online career
centre to meet the needs of career transition candidates. People
appreciate the immediacy, efficiency and expertise, while benefiting
from the personal input and partnership of a career expert.
What
makes our online career centre stand apart from others is the
strong integration of consultant input and the latest technology
available to conduct a web-based job search. Our consultants can
advise candidates on any aspect of their search or career change
and on any aspect of the process, from anywhere in the world.
All
activities on the online career centre are driven by the candidate,
at his or her own pace, and are strongly enhanced by the guidance,
feedback, personal interest and partnership of the career consultant.
We strongly believe that human touch is a critical part of helping
individuals deal with the stress and emotional upheaval associated
with job loss.
Career
centre features
CPI's
online career centre is highly interactive and highly activity
based. Assessment is accomplished by completing industry-leading
inventories online and reviewing their results and implications
with a consultant either in person, over the phone or via email.
Candidates
prepare their résumé by completing steps in a "résumé
generator" and submitting the résumé draft
to their consultant, who edits and strengthens the document.
Instructional
modules teach candidates strategies and techniques needed to implement
an effective job search. One module not only presents valuable
information on interviewing, but allows the consultant to "listen"
to how candidates might answer interview questions, then give
necessary feedback for improvement.
It
allows us, as career management consultants, to point out self-defeating
behaviours that may be sabotaging a job search and suggest productive
ways to make better career choices. With feedback and encouragement,
a candidate who feels stuck or derailed can move forward.
The
online career centre is really a personal coach for career planning.
It's the personal touch of the consultant that lends a striking
added dimension to the technology.
