Outplacement: support towards a new future
What is outplacement?
In an outplacement programme, the costs are usually paid by your current employer. At Care4Careers, you work with a dedicated coach who personally supports you in defining and working towards your next step. You can start with a free and non-binding introductory conversation.
Why the phases sit in this order is explained on what an outplacement programme involves.
What does an outplacement process look like at Care4Careers in Hoogeveen?
Our approach in 5 steps
Count on three to six months, in which five steps follow one another. That makes an outplacement programme something other than a list of tips on applying.
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
Where have you been looking so far, and what did that produce? That shows immediately which part of the market you are missing.
Coaching and assessment
Where do your abilities lie, and which of them does an employer in this area actually ask for?
Preparing for the market
Your profile is made fit for three channels at once, because an agency reads differently from a director.
Job search and network
You use the channels you were not using, with a list of companies instead of a list of vacancies.
Aftercare and support
You are working somewhere, and we remain contactable for as long as it has yet to prove itself.

Four moments for preparing your next move
When outplacement is used
The trigger can vary, but each situation eventually requires a clearer view of your professional future outside the current organisation.
Your position disappears after internal change
When the organisation is redesigned, we reposition your experience for opportunities beyond it.
The final months of a fixed-term agreement have begun
You can use that period deliberately to determine where to go next and what preparation is required.
Departure is arranged through mutual agreement
The employer may fund career transition support, giving you structured help in preparing the next phase.
Returning is no longer appropriate after an extended absence
If employment ends, we investigate which working content and environment could now provide a more sustainable fit.
Outplacement in Hoogeveen
From work to work, through the right channel
Vacancy websites are one way of finding work. Depending on your search direction, recruiters, your network and direct contact with employers may also be useful.
We know the firms on the estates
Production, transport, storage, the care institutions and the municipalities. Which of them recruit themselves and which run everything through an agency, we know from experience.
Approaching directly works here
Calling a company with nothing advertised produces more than you would think. Making contact without asking for work is explained in networking to find work.
The cost sits with your employer
The papers put in front of you should name it. Let someone with knowledge of the field go through them, and sign only afterwards: having your settlement agreement reviewed.
Also once you have started
Certainly with a start through an agency you want to know whether the prospect of permanent work is real. Through those months you can still reach your coach.
What you are working towards
You have learned which route brings you work, and this time round you followed it on purpose.
Who guides you
The coaches at De Vos van Steenwijklaan
The same coach from introduction until after your start, someone who knows the firms along the motorways and which of them recruit themselves. You come to the Griendtsveenweg, or we speak by video.
Our office
Outplacement 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.
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.
The region at a glance
The labour market in Hoogeveen
The bulk of the work here comes from manufacturing, logistics and healthcare, while employers struggle to fill posts in engineering, healthcare, logistics and construction. What stands out is how much of that work is filled outside the job boards.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about outplacement
I have been applying for months without result. What now?
Then the channel is probably the problem rather than your CV. On a vacancy you apply alongside dozens of others; approaching a company with nothing advertised you often do alone. We shift the weight towards the second and keep the first alongside it.
Do agencies work well here?
In production, logistics and engineering it is a customary stepping stone into permanent work here, and many firms recruit exclusively that way. What does count is being registered with several agencies and being clear about where you want to go instead of accepting everything.
Do you include Assen and Meppel?
As standard. Assen and Meppel lie half an hour away and Emmen three quarters. Rather keep to Hoogeveen and the surrounding villages? Fine, though the pond shrinks and we do not conceal that.
What does a programme cost?
In money terms it comes to 2,000 up to 5,000 euros, VAT not counted. The components you pick and the months you run steer the final figure, and it reaches you in advance.
How soon can it begin?
Roughly seven days after the assignment has been confirmed. Messages as a rule get an answer the same or the next day.
Several people are leaving us. Do they get the same?
No. One has been with the same agency for years and another has never applied for anything, and that asks for a different approach. In consultation with the coach, the employee chooses which modules apply. Background at the modules.
