Employers

Outplacement support

Helping Your Employees Into Re-employment

We offer employers, who are reducing the level of their human resources, a professional and effective support service that will assist their employees to secure their futures in roles that utilise their transferable skills with new employers or in self-employment.

Noted Careers' Outplacement service will save your business time, significant costs and free up vital resources while satisfying the re-employment needs of your employees. Our Outplacement service encompasses employers and employees, their families and workplace representatives.

Unexpected change

The need for Outplacement services can arise quickly and unexpectedly, often finding employers totally unprepared and their internal resources already stretched in handling other pressing core business imperatives.

We have the resources

Noted Careers has the resources for fast response to your immediate and ongoing needs. We work with small and large groups to provide greater understanding of their current unexpected situation and to assist prospective job seekers in their search for new employment positions. We are able to provide job seekers with virtually unlimited resources of employment opportunities.

Fast response

We offer a same day electronic communications and personal on-site response service that will reduce the immediate tenseness and apprehension inherent in uncertainties about future employment.

Employer & employee support

Both employers and employees will need fast access to sound knowledge and good advice when an outplacement situation arises. Noted Careers can step-in to quickly bring employers up to speed on their options and obligations. We can manage the whole situation and communicate directly with employees on site. In consultation with employers and employee representatives, Noted Careers helps plan the way forward for employers and employees. Selecting appropriately from a range of proven outplacement communication methods and materials we communicate the step-by-step process and respond to unique situations and individuals' concerns.

Individual service and families

We understand that no two employees are in the same personal situation or have the same outlook on their future employment prospects. After the initial phase of group consultation Noted Careers works with each employee, on a one-to-one basis, to source appropriate re-employment through our intensive Job Seekers Program.

Families are obviously a very important element in the outplacement process. Families are not only affected by a change in employment circumstances but they can also play a significant support role and be very instrumental in bringing about re-employment. Noted Careers' ensures that families can be kept well informed about the changes that can occur, the support role they can play and the important real function they can fulfill in bringing about re-employment.

Workmates' and friends' support network

At no extra cost, Noted Careers provides a secure virtual noticeboard, located in our Internet site and specific to your company, that can be accessed by all redeployees for the voluntary exchange and sharing of valuable information on job networking and the hidden job market. We also understand the sense of loss that can occur with the potential for involuntary severing of friendships between workmates of longstanding. The site also contains a contact noticeboard where personal contact information can be posted.

Guarantee

Noted Careers provides a written guarantee to each of your employees. Each employee will receive the full services of our Job Seekers Program and we will thereafter continue to work with every employee until they are offered an employment position or establish self-employment.

Accounting & Taxation Training

At Noted Careers, we offer you the chance to get practical experience into the industry through our Accounting & Taxation Training and Bookkeeping Training. Our professional training programs are designed to improve your success.

You might be surprised to know that the current employment market and outlook for accounting graduates is very positive. Strong demand for accountants across Australia means employers continue to be under pressure to meet the demand for new employees. The positive employment outlook for accounting graduates is not surprising given that there is currently a marked national skills shortage in this profession.

However, researches show that over 60% of employers had trouble recruiting graduates of particular disciplines and of those 23.5% experienced difficulty finding suitable accounting graduates. One contributing factor is that often candidates lack the practical Accounting & Taxation skills the potential employers are wanting. Another is that candidates fail to prepare properly for their accounting job search and make many mistakes in their job applications. Talk to us and we will help you explore every possibility to develop you career in the Accounting & Taxation profession.

Clients' Testimonials

Thank you for helping get my job at ANZ Bank. It was a great experience working with you during my job interview process. I was well informed which made my job seeking process easy. I had such a pleasurable time with you, Gregory and Shelia at Noted Careers. I appreciate you tremendous help. I know that without your help, I could not make it.
--Linda

Shelia, Believe me the amount of things I have learned from you and Gregory is enough for me to shape my whole career. I would not be able to frame my career properly without your help. Also, I want to let you know that I feel I am in a partnership with you guys for a long time to come as I consider you both as my mentors.
--Claudine

I would like to thank you for the great professional support you provided to me and especially for the continuous encouragement and friendly approach, which had been a tremendous strength in my quest for a job. I knew, even before my arrival in Melbourne, that the greatest challenge would be securing the first job. Indeed, the challenge was there and evident but the assurance I received from you & the confidence you had in me enabled me not to drift into frustration but rather maintain a positive attitude resulting in me applying for higher positions and obtaining one. I believe this position, Financial Manager, will act as a spring board. The employment will help me acquire a better understanding of the Australian accounting practice, which will make it easier for me develop my career.
--Mike

I still remembered the other day when I dropped in your office, extremely depressed and blue. I had been looking for a job for ages and sent hundreds of emails. What I expected at the end was either no reply or a rejection letter. Today, when I open my email box, I found three interviews today. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I firmly believe what you taught me will be a life-long asset and I can’t help but sending you this email and thanks for all you did to help me.
--Andrew

I still can't believe that I really get this job that I've dreamt of in GapBuster. I love the position, the team, the working environment and the company's culture! I can't believe it that I really get my first IT job in just one month's time! If there hadn't been your help, I would never make it this quick! …Thank you for your team work! You are the best professional people!
--May

Good news and praise God, I got the job that I was interviewing for yesterday. I really appreciate both your helps and supports. I don't think I could have made it by myself. I believe the resume, the cover letter and the interview practice have helped me a lot in getting this job.
--Adrian

I wanted to take a moment to thank you, Gregory, Shelia and all Noted Careers members first. I just heard I am employed by NAB and I am overjoyed. That is the kind of job I expect for quite a long time but could never get before. I am sure the effort you and me put together is worthwhile. Thanks for always supporting me, especially when the hard time came; thanks for never giving up and sincerely helping.
--Sarah

I always heard the story of people without PR can’t find a job in current job market. I was surrounded by lots of unemployed friends and was scared that I might one day be in the same situation. But I am pleased that I chose working with you before finishing university study. Now, I am employed, even though I do not have a PR. But to say the truth, I am not that worried. I am confident to get PR in the near future. What I’ve learnt is prepare earlier and get professional help. What makes me happy is not whether I got PR or not, but I am independent and employed right now.
--Lisa

I feel lucky to find a job so quickly. To say the truth, before joining your programs, I was hesitating working with agencies. I called lots of friends and relatives who had different opinions and gave me different rejections. But fortunately, I made the decision by myself and started working with you. It is hard for me to express my feeling now. I didn’t expect the quick result really. Now, the only words I have to say are ‘thank you for all.
--James

I should thank Tony for introducing you guys to me, because he couldn’t have been more correct. I am so glad that I finally found a way to market myself quickly. I know how important logistical manager is, but one has to promote in other ways, right? Thanks for all you’ve done in the job seekers program! Thanks for your help! I’m so glad to have a good career job.
--Robert

I’m writing a few points here just to let everyone know my great experience in Noted Careers. I graduated in Sydney one and half a years ago and started to look for a job but could not get one there. I came to Melbourne and joined Noted Careers’ career training program three months ago and now find an accounting job. My friends told me it was even harder to get a job in Melbourne. What should they say right now?
--Darcy

I went through a whole lot of trouble searching the website and making my resume and cover letter looks nicer, and ended up spending too much time on ineffectual writing. When I first came to you I was sceptical and was afraid to lose my money and waste my time again. I can officially say that now I know exactly where to turn when I need to get real traffic. WOW! I’m lucky to receive so many responses from different employers in my industry!
--Audrey

I’ve definitely noticed your worthwhile methods in helping me looking for a job. I’ll be recommending your company to others. Thanks!
--Jon

Being a recent Graduate, I realized without working experience, even though I had a bunch of strengthens, I would not get myself compete with everybody else and show them in front of potential employer. I just wanted to say how pleased I am with your service. Now, I believe for new graduate, with or without working experience is not a big issue to get a great job.
--Yu

Thanks, Gregory and Shelia, and all the Noted Careers’ staff. Thanks for having been working great for me. I just got job offer from Orica. I wanted to tell you first. From my deep heart, without your help, I could not make it.
--Acheson

You see, the truth is it is hard to find a quality service these days, but yours is one of the quality ones.
--Bright

I want let you know that I have started working at CSC one week ago and I would like to thank you all so much for helping me out enormously. Without your genius touch I would not be where I am today.--Michael

My words just couldn't describe my appreciation to you all. I believe what I have learned in Noted Careers has a life-time benefit to me and I really enjoy the time we were together!
--Macey

I want to send you this quick message to tell you that I got the job! I was so relaxed during the interview since I’ve got enough similar practices from you. Thanks for your help, Shelia and Gregory!
--Ling

Answer: We are career managers not recruitment. We work for you the client and make available to you extensive resources to assist in developing job seeking skills, career management and job skills that will be useful throughout your career. Our role at Noted Careers does not involve matching job seekers to employers. However, we do make a guarantee to work with you and support you until you are successful getting the job you want.

5. Question: As University students, how can I enhance my employability?

Answer: Make the most of opportunities at Noted Careers, such as participating in a job skills program, attending career planning or job search sessions held by Noted Careers, seeking part-time employment to develop career relevant skills, or doing volunteer work. The more skills and experience you have, the more employable you will be at the end of your study.

6. Question: When should I begin to take advantage of Noted Careers Career Services?

Answer: As soon as possible. Early attention to career planning and career development is increasingly necessary in today’s competitive job markets. You play the biggest role in preparing for your professional future, so take initiative and do not allow avoidance, family, friends (however sincere they mean to be) and fear to get the better of you.

7. Question: I was told it was a bad time to find a job now, especially considering the economic downturn and jobs cut in Australian companies. How can I be assured that you can help me?

Answer: Now is always the best time to get a good job. There is never a good reason to wait. Jobs always become available for the right person. It is Notedcareers job to help you be the right person for the job. The right people find employment options even in times of a possible recession.

Some tips, tools, training and support from Noted Careers could help the career-minded job seeker in this time of economic uncertainty.

8. Question: I completed a Master degree but lack working experience. How can I find my dream job?

Answer: Many graduates often come up against the ‘experience’ dilemma. Many people assume that one cannot get a job without experience. However, one cannot get experience if no one gives it to one in the first place! Therefore, the initial starting-out period will require an extra effort on your part to get your talents out in a short term. Remember, everybody gets their first job when they have no experience. Entry-level jobs are for people with no experience but you must be the right person.

9. Question: I sent my resume to hundreds of employers and recruitment agencies in last few days without a response. Why?

Answer: There are many reasons why you are not getting a response. Getting a job does not happen by accident, it requires hard work and knowledge. Using discipline, training, and strategies that are proven to work is the best way to overcome this issue. To name a couple of those reasons is attention to detail and the right methodology of applying. Additionally, there is the Hidden Job Market, which in itself is a job in learning how to do it effectively.

10. Question: How much does it cost for a Noted Careers Job Seeker Programs?

Answer: Noted Careers clients come from a variety of situations with diverse needs and possess a wide range of personalities, skills and career objectives. Fees vary accordingly to these varieties of situations. Among the varieties of situations are language and accent training.
