Alternatives Consulting Psychologist are experienced in administering a range of psychological and vocational assessments for diagnostic purposes, developing appropriate treatment programs, identifying suitable employment options or recruiting staff.
Career assessment and career planning will assist highschool students to identify the employment options that best match their skills, abilities and work preferences.

Alternatives Consulting Psychologists work closely with small and medium-sized businesses (SME s) to identify their specific job demands and develop recruitment processes to select suitable employees.
Career Assessment & Planning
We provide career planning and assessment to assist Years 10-12 students to think more broadly about their career options, and identify employment preferences which best match their skills, interests and capabilities.
It is also not unusual for students at University level to be unsure of their career path and to realise, often too late, that they have little interest or motivation for completing the course they have chosen.
In fact, research statistics quoted by Centrelink (2005) indicate that 40% of university students either fail or drop out of their course by the end of their first year of tertiary study.
Having effective career planning increases the likelihood that students will choose educational pathways that match their capabilities and aspirations.
Selection and Recruitment
It is often difficult for small businesses to recruit new employees who not only have relevant skills and capabilities, but are also able to cope with the particular demands of the job.
Our consultants can assist you with:
- Developing an accurate Job Description
- Determining work skills and capabilities required for that position
- Identifying specific work demands
- Determining appropriate ways of assessing an applicant’s work skills
- Assessing for “person-job fit” to determine whether the applicant has the emotional resilience, team qualities, and right attitude to best match the job demands

- Determining presence and extent of psychological symptoms (DSM-IV diagnosis)
- depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress - Workers’ Compensation claims
