Outplacement Services in Canada since 1981.

Compassionate, Professional and Genuinely Helpful Support for Human Resources Teams Nationwide.

Empowering Canadian Job Seekers through their career transition journeys.

 

We Are Full-Service Outplacement Specialists

The moment an employee is told their services are no longer required, their mind generally turns to the problem of replacing their income.  For most people, having to navigate today’s fast-moving job market by themselves is a lonely and frustrating prospect.  

The goal of our full-service outplacement programs is to provide meaningful, practical and personalized assistance to keep one’s time between jobs to the minimum by providing personal coaching, practical job search strategies and financial counselling support.

Ultimately, at CMS we are in the 'helping business' and every member of our team feels personally responsible for the work we do for our candidates and the HR Managers who introduce them to us. We are all fully aware that our candidates’ success is also our success and reputation and we work vehemently to protect both.

Louise Hack has been a highly responsive and collaborative partner with our organization. She is there when needed outside of normal business times to respond to inquiries outside of her time zone. She is helpful and flexible – coming up with solutions that meet our needs. She is open to feedback and actions accordingly. I would recommend Louise and CMS Inc. with your outplacement needs.
Louise and her team of have a difficult job of supporting organizational restructures and terminations. Not only are they supportive, professional and democratic during the event/meeting, but they provide excellent support to their candidates while in transition. The CMS team is flexible, democratic and have supported me in very last-minute requests as the business needs changed.
