Outplacement Lugano: supporting a career transition in Lugano
SHR's outplacement in Lugano is for companies parting ways with an employee who want the departure handled with dignity and backed by practical support towards a new job.
Useful outplacement in Lugano starts from the local job market: which employers are hiring, which skills transfer from one sector to another, and which networks to activate in the canton of Ticino and beyond.
Outplacement Lugano: the local angle
In Lugano, the Italian-speaking market is smaller and networks matter a great deal, especially in banking, fashion and family SMEs. Outplacement helps map those networks, consider the rest of Switzerland or Lombardy as well, and prepare applications in Italian and German.
Outplacement Lugano sessions take place in Lugano, at your premises, at our office in Plan-les-Ouates or remotely.
