Career coaching: professional guidance for your career
What is career coaching?
A programme consists of four to six conversations with the same coach, with some time between each. That time is needed: you go and look, ask and try, and only then do you know whether a direction holds. What happens is set out at the career programme.
In a region where much work travels through acquaintances, part of the possibilities stays out of view. So we give attention to how you get sight of what you currently do not see.

Career coaching in Hoogeveen and nearby
Our Hoogeveen location sits on De Vos van Steenwijklaan, close to the centre. Manufacturing, logistics and healthcare account for most jobs in this area, with the estates along the A28 and A37 as their centre of gravity. What makes the difference when searching is not your trade but your channel: where you get vacancies from decides which part of the market you ever see.
The work around Hoogeveen sits mainly in manufacturing, logistics and healthcare, concentrated on the estates along the A28 and A37. Assen, Meppel and Emmen are within reach, which makes your search area larger than the municipality itself. The question we hear most here is how much room that area really holds.
About Hoogeveen
Good to know about Hoogeveen
Business estates along two motorways
Where the A28 and the A37 cross, production, storage and transport sit together. Those firms often recruit through agencies rather than through their own website.
A lot of work here travels by word of mouth
In a municipality this size people know each other through school, sport and family. That makes a recommendation weigh more than an application letter, provided people know you are looking.
Assen, Meppel and Emmen within reach
Assen and Meppel lie half an hour away, Emmen three quarters. Including those three enlarges the supply considerably without moving house coming into it.
De Vos van Steenwijklaan, near the centre
There is parking space in the area, and from the station it costs you a couple of minutes. Would you rather not leave the house, then the whole thing runs by video.
Paperwork opens doors, though not all of them
A certificate helps with part of the roles and is redundant elsewhere. Working out what is genuinely required saves time and money.
Your search area sets your supply
Within thirty minutes lie three towns with quite different work. How wide you draw that circle is a choice, not a given.
Rota and travel time together
Early shifts and half an hour of driving combine differently from office hours. We work that through before you start applying.
What does career coaching at Care4Careers look like?
From reach to direction
How much attention a step gets depends on your question.
In practice it usually runs as follows.
Intake meeting
An introduction in which we establish whether coaching takes you further. At De Vos van Steenwijklaan or by video.
Who am I? Why do I work? What can I do?
We map your experience and your skills, including what you taught yourself along the way.
What do I want?
You settle which direction you are after and how large your search area becomes. A <a href="/en/kenniscentrum/loopbaanbegeleiding/gratis-loopbaantest">career test</a> is a useful aid there.
Drawing up a plan of action
The plan holds the fitting roles, any training required and the places where you are going to look.
Realising the Next Step
You get to work and keep your coach involved until it runs.
What you are working towards
You know which direction you are choosing and within which area you are searching.
What lies on the table here
Four recurring questions in Hoogeveen
Four subjects come by most with us.
Widening your search area, or bounding it
Assen, Meppel and Emmen offer different work from Hoogeveen itself. Where you look decides what you find, so we make that choice deliberately.
Whether or not to train further
A course can open a step and is sometimes redundant. We first test what a role genuinely asks. On changing jobs you can read more.
From the floor into planning or coordination
Anyone who knows the work can often organise it too. Which skills that involves we work out. More on that on what sort of work fits you.
Knowing what you take with you
After years in the same work you lose sight of your own range. A career scan sharpens it.

When your job disappears
A departure usually belongs with outplacement.
Where your employer takes on the cost of guidance towards other work, it concerns outplacement. What is in play in your situation we discuss beforehand.
Where that is not the case, it turns purely on the direction you choose.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about career coaching in Hoogeveen
How many conversations does it consist of?
Four to six, a few weeks apart. The craft of the career coach we explain separately.
What does a programme cost?
A short programme costs 1,000 euros excluding VAT; more extensive means more. Prices per variant are at the cost of career coaching. The introduction is free.
Can my employer reimburse this?
Sometimes, through a training budget or the collective agreement. Ask what is possible in your case.
Do I need to know what I am after?
No. Working that out is exactly what the first conversations are for.
Can it run by video?
Yes, we often do that through online career coaching.
