Outplacement Resources

DBM (www.dbm.com) is the world’s leading provider of strategic human resource solutions that help organizations align their workforces to meet changing business needs. Known for over 35 years for its innovative and effective career transition services, DBM offers in-depth capabilities in employee transition, retention, development, and selection. Founded in 1967, the company has more than 225 locations in over 45 countries.

Ordinarily DBM works directly with a company that is downsizing and DBM's services are included as part of a severance package for departing employees. They very kindly agreed to meet with me and have prepared a combination of group and individual services to assist former Wieland employees. I will cover the highlights here and have more detailed information if you are interested.

The DBM Direct package is online assistance and includes resume assistance via email, access to a research resource center, tutorials for interviewing questions, access to skills and knowledge inventory assessments and additional services. Thirty days of access costs former Wieland employees $100 and sixty days of access cost
$150.

I have a document with detailed information and attempted to post it but encountered technical difficulties. I will continue to try so hopefully that information will be available on the blog soon.

In addition, DBM has offered to conduct either full or half day seminars that would include a DBM facilitator for the duration of the session, thirty days access to DBM's Comprehensive WebCenter and sixty days access to the DBM Search Guide. The session would be limited to 15-20 participants and would range in price from $40 to $100 per person, depending on whether it is a half or full day session and on how many choose to participate.

Please email me at elizbell@bellsouth.net if you are interested in additional information. For those of you who are interested in DBM Direct, please consider the seminar as well. A full day session with 20 participants, including thirty days access to DBM's WebCenter and sixty days access to the DBM Search guide , is the same expense as simply thirty days access to DBM Direct. I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
