Outplacement: support towards a new future
What is outplacement?
Outplacement in Hattem also covers what the work did to you in the evening. That rarely comes up in an interview, while it is often the real reason someone wanted to leave. In a town where living and working lie close together, it is moreover the best gauge of what you should be looking for next. The introductory conversation is free of charge.
Which phase lands where is spelled out in what an outplacement programme involves.
What does an outplacement process look like at Care4Careers in Hattem?
Our approach in 5 steps
Three to six months in all, put together out of five phases that arrive in sequence. That ordering is what marks an outplacement programme out from a run of unconnected conversations.
Many people opt for a modular programme: together with your coach you decide where to put the effort. Here you will find our modules.
Personal intake
What did you take home, and since when? The second tells you more about the cause than the first.
Coaching and assessment
What can you do, and under which conditions do you keep it up?
Preparing for the market
Your profile describes your work, and alongside it stands what you ask about workload in an interview.
Job search and network
You approach employers yourself and test during the conversation how things go there in the evening.
Aftercare and support
You have started and we watch whether things really feel different at home.

Situations in which your professional future lies elsewhere
When outplacement is used
Once remaining with the organisation is no longer expected, attention can shift towards the kind of working environment you want next.
Restructuring brings your current role to an end
A disappearing position does not remove the strengths you developed there. We translate those strengths into other opportunities.
Your employment has a predefined end date
That clarity can be used to start career exploration during the final part of the contract.
Departure is formalised by mutual agreement
Alongside the terms of termination, funding for professional support can also be included to help prepare what follows.
Your original role no longer fits after absence
If employment ends because a sustainable return is not feasible, we focus on a working situation that can better accommodate you.
Outplacement in Hattem
From work to work, and what you took home
An interview covers content and salary at length and what the work does to you in the evening hardly at all. Yet that is often why someone wanted to leave, and it is the best gauge for what you should be looking for next.
We know the employers around Zwolle
The manufacturers, the wholesalers, the care institutions and the municipalities. Where the route in is short and where it runs formally, we know per organisation.
Naming the load is not complaining
Employers probe why you wanted to leave. A calm answer about workload or availability lands better than an evasive story, and we formulate that together.
The cost comes from your old employer
Your exit paperwork states the figure; get it reviewed before signing off: having your settlement agreement reviewed.
In the first months afterwards too
Whether things get calmer at home only shows once you have been elsewhere a while. Until then you can reach your guide.
What you are working towards
Your work stops again when you walk out of the door, and this time that was a condition.
Who guides you
Your coach at the Hezenberg
At the Hezenberg you work with a coach who knows the metalworkers, wholesalers and care institutions between Hattem and Zwolle. What the work did to you in the evening belongs in the conversation here, because it is often the real reason someone left. Zwolle is ten minutes away and Apeldoorn a quarter of an hour. Meet at the Hezenberg or by video.
Our office
Outplacement in Hattem and nearby
Our Hattem location stands on Hezenberg, just across the IJssel from Zwolle. The jobs here sit in metal, wholesale and healthcare, and the town practically borders Zwolle while Apeldoorn is a quarter of an hour further on. In a place where living and working lie close together, one thing stands out after a departure: how much of the work someone took home.
About Hattem
Good to know about Hattem
Zwolle ten minutes away
One bridge further lies a city with a full labour market in healthcare, education and services, with Apeldoorn and Kampen each a quarter of an hour away. In practice that means hundreds of roles within an acceptable travel time, which for a town of this size is unusual.
A small town with short lines
A local network can be useful during a job search, but not everyone wants to announce immediately that they are available. We therefore discuss who you do and do not want to approach and how visible you want your search to be.
Manufacturing at the edge
If your practical experience is strong but your qualifications do not match a vacancy exactly, we help you show clearly which knowledge and skills you have developed through your work.
Hezenberg, at the edge of Hattem
You can leave the car in front of the building, and the bus from Zwolle stops within walking distance. Would you rather not travel, the whole programme runs by video, intake through to aftercare.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about outplacement
May I ask about workload in an interview?
Yes, and it lands better than people fear. Asking how often there is contact outside working hours, who gets called for breakdowns and how cover is arranged during illness shows you are thinking about sustainability. The tone makes the difference: curious rather than suspicious.
Everyone here knows everyone. Will my search stay quiet?
If you want it to. We can enquire with employers without a name being mentioned, and we record beforehand which contacts and which firms we leave alone. In a place this size that is not excessive caution but a sensible arrangement, certainly while your departure is not yet settled.
Do you include Zwolle?
As standard. Across the bridge lies a full labour market ten minutes away, and Apeldoorn and Kampen are equally close. Wanting to stay within Hattem and Wezep is possible, though the supply then gets considerably smaller.
What does a programme cost?
Allow for an amount of 2,000 to 5,000 euros, VAT excluded. What it comes to for you depends on the components you select and the number of months you run, and you get that figure in writing before anything starts. The invoicing arrangements are agreed with the client in advance. In many outplacement programmes, the employer commissions and pays for the support directly.
How soon can it begin?
A little over a week once the assignment has been approved. Messages are normally answered within twenty-four hours.
We are letting several employees go. Do they get the same?
No. One left the work at the doorstep and another lay awake over it, and that calls for a different conversation and different work. Together with their coach, each employee puts together their own combination of modules. The full list is at the outplacement programme.
Where is Care4Careers in Hattem?
Hezenberg 6, 8051 CB Hattem, at the edge of town. Tell us which day works for you and a coach will be ready.
Which towns belong here?
Zwolle, Wezep, Heerde, Epe, Kampen and Wapenveld are included. Apeldoorn is a quarter of an hour from here, and if your search area reaches further onto the Veluwe or towards Meppel we look there just as hard.
