Austen Smythe Recruitment
Outplacement services for companies
Austen Smythe offer a full outplacement service.
Should your Organisation be in the unfortunate position of having
to make redundancies, we can support you and your staff through
this difficult time.
History
During the recession of the early 1990s Austen Smythe branched out and introduced an Outplacement Service to help serve the Banking and Finance Industry during a time when the number of advertised jobs was greatly outnumbered by the number of redundancies being made. At the time both directors of Austen Smythe attended training courses in Outplacement to keep abreast of the changing needs and requirements of the industry.
What we offer
The Outplacement Service offered by Austen Smythe covers the essentials of getting back to work after having been made redundant, which includes CV writing, advice on interviews, general advice on the current job front, and introductions with regards to networking - and all this with consultants who have worked on both sides of recruitment and who specialise in the Banking and Finance industry.
Fees
Austen Smythe has always ensured that the Outplacement Service they offer is competitive and in the current market, cost is everything. To this end, Austen Smythe has changed the face of the outplacement service and is able to offer an extremely inexpensive yet comprehensive service.
If you would like to find out more about our Outplacement Service, please call or email Tessa Beck.

Our steps to Outplacement success
1. Great CV
Many candidates find themselves with little or no experience of writing a comprehensive CV. As the selling tool for prospective candidates, experience proves that a well written CV ensures interviews. We find that many professionally written CVs are filled with clichéd profiles and introductions using the same hackneyed phrases such as "high achiever" and "uses initiative". It can sometimes take 10 minutes just to find out what exactly the person does. We concentrate on skills and experience. Our CVs are tailored for the busy HR professional who has no time for flowery prose. Our expertise in CV writing for the Banking industry is first class.
2. Shine at Interview
Even the most experienced candidate can get nervous and
tongue-tied. We can offer excellent and detailed advice on the
dos and don'ts at interview.
3. Network like Crazy
Austen Smythe is foremost an established Banking and Finance Recruitment Agency and as such has access to all newly created and replacement jobs that arise in the industry both temporary and permanent. We have an excellent reputation for networking with other consultancies and can offer candidates exclusive and comprehensive advice of where else to register, personal introductions and how to network for themselves.
4. Tea and Sympathy
With 30 years experience within Banking and Finance Recruitment, Austen Smythe are well placed to offer sound and honest advice on careers within the Industry and how realistic individual goals are likely to be. We can successfully deal with loss of confidence at this time and boost morale.
