Career transition helps employees find new employment quickly and efficiently.  Leveraging the combined experience and expertise of Calfe & Associates professional consultants is a valued benefit to provide to employees. The key competitive differentiator is an outlook focused on re-employment—not the process.

Through our global partnerships of over 250 offices worldwide, high quality transition services can be consistently accessed. Calfe & Associates employs a “high-touch,” approach that demonstrably reduces employment downtime.

Calfe & Associates offers a broad range of programs that can be tailored to the individual needs of our client companies and their employees.  Individual programs focus on the person and his/her experience and skills. We customize strategies that help achieve personal goals quickly and efficiently.

Calfe & Associates knows, from extensive experience, how to help the individual attain his/her goals whether they are seeking traditional employment, entrepreneurship, consulting assignments, or retirement. We then develop a plan that is unique to the individual's situation. 

Calfe & Associates stands ready to assist in all aspects of a downsizing.  We help with preparation planning, training, scheduling, and communications.  We also work with the aftereffects of a downsizing to get the enterprise focused on the future.

The Executive Program

		Executives have the drive, creativity and financial wherewithal to explore a myriad of opportunities.  Researching and testing various paths, including both traditional and non-traditional options, are made more efficient with a coach/adviser who can suggest and consult on a broad spectrum of options. As ideas take shape, the executive and the Calfe & Associates consultant formulate strategies and tactics to turn the idea into reality. Our Executive Program facilitates the process with senior-level, certified consultants who take a broad view of what might be and then add a dose of pragmatism.
	The Director / Manager Program

	Directors and Managers are key members of the leadership team. Oftentimes, their focus is to find work quickly, and commensurate with the responsibilities and compensation they recently received.  Job search skills such as an accomplishment-driven resume or effective interviewing techniques may be lacking.  The Calfe & Associates consultant works with the professional to prepare them for the project of getting a job quickly.  The result is achieved faster and more on point because of the experienced coaching and assistance the person receives. Our Director/Manager Programs customize and personalize the job search process.  The talents and experiences of the person form a valuable solution to the target employers.  Packaging that individual’s story and promoting it to solve an employer’s problem is the key to success.
The Professional Program

	Professional employees offer skills and knowledge to the enterprise.  Their skills may be highly technical such as programmers, chemists, attorneys or engineers; or their contribution may lie in executing complex projects or processes.  Their needs are to find the right work environment in which they can thrive and succeed. Our economy changes dramatically, so finding the same type of position is not always feasible.  The work may have been automated, consolidated or sent off shore.  Success in the job search process is a combination of flexibility, creativity and pragmatism.  Alternatives are explored, opportunities identified, and the experiences of how others have fared guide the individual to his or her next work engagement.  The professional achieves success more efficiently and effectively.
The Market Readiness Program

	Administrative, hourly employees are very resilient, but may need to learn the basic processes involved in a job search.  They may need assistance in packaging their skills, or knowing where to look for their next job, such as using the internet.  They may also need coaching on how to interview more effectively and how to best position their skills and education. Calfe & Associates work with the individual to understand his or her goals and needs, and provide the knowledge necessary to achieve them.  We also can provide internet access and demonstrate how to use it to identify opportunities and quickly apply for them.
The Virtual Program

Personalizing job search support takes into account the needs of the individual. An employee may feel that he or she does not need the administrative support that a traditional program offers. For these individuals, Calfe & Associates offers a cost effective program, combining one-on-one coaching with technology, which provides high levels of research and administrative support. This allows the individual to work from home and conduct a job search in a personalized manner, while enjoying the full benefit of highly-personalized coaching support.
