Outplacement services

Your People Deserve More Than a Generic Goodbye

Layoffs are hard. The way you handle them is not. Realign gives every affected employee a matched, expert coach — and gives your HR team a program that activates in hours, not weeks.

Layoffs are one of the hardest decisions a company makes. How you support people through them is one of your most visible ones.

The way departing employees experience this moment shapes your employer brand, your remaining team's trust, and — most importantly — the lives of real people. Legacy outplacement programs offer a resume template and a phone number. Realign offers a coach who actually shows up.

What affected employees receive

Full-spectrum support — from day one to day hired

This is not a self-serve portal. Every employee in your program gets a real coach in their corner from the moment they get the news.

1:1 coaching, matched to them

Each person is paired with a coach who fits their level, industry, and goals — not assigned at random from a pool.

Resume & LinkedIn overhaul

ATS-optimized resumes and LinkedIn profiles that reflect who they are and where they are going, not just where they have been.

Interview preparation

Live mock interviews, answer frameworks, and negotiation coaching — so they walk in confident, not rehearsed.

Career clarity

For those who are unsure what is next, our coaches help them identify the right target roles before job hunting begins.

Emotional support

Losing a job is a life event, not just a career event. Our coaches hold space for the whole person — not just the resume.

Fast, confident landings

Our 90%+ interview rate within 3 months means your people do not linger in uncertainty. They land — and they land well.

Each employee is paired with a coach based on their level, function, and career goals — typically within 24 hours.

You receive reporting

Engagement summaries and landing updates flow to your HR team so you can close out transitions with confidence.

Why Realign beats legacy outplacement

The old model wasn't built for your people

Most legacy outplacement programs were designed for compliance, not outcomes. Here's what's different.

What matters Legacy firms Realign
Coach quality Career advisors with mixed credentials Top 1% — coaches with 14–24+ years of real experience
Matching Assigned in bulk, often geographic Individually matched by level, function, and goals
Time to first session 2–4 weeks to activate 24–48 hours — ready when your people need it most
Emotional support Job-search tactics only Whole-person coaching, including the emotional transition
Reporting Participation numbers, little else Landing rates, satisfaction, and engagement data
Guarantee No standard guarantee 100% satisfaction — full refund if expectations are not met
Real outcomes

Participants land at companies like

AppleMicrosoftAmazonTeslaNetflixMetaDell

Our coaches have the experience and networks to help your people land at the organizations they actually want to work for — not just the first offer that comes along.

Common questions

Answers before the conversation

We're happy to walk through anything on a call — but these cover the most common questions HR teams ask us first.

How quickly can you activate the program?

We can onboard affected employees and begin matching within 24–48 hours of receiving your list. Most employees have their first coaching session scheduled within the first week.

Do employees have to use the coaching?

Participation is voluntary. In practice, uptake is high because employees genuinely see the value — especially when the program is introduced compassionately at the time of notice.

How are coaches matched to employees?

We match on role level (individual contributor, manager, executive), function (engineering, marketing, finance, etc.), industry background, and career goals. No employee gets a generic coach.

What does reporting look like for our HR team?

You receive engagement summaries, session completion rates, landing outcomes (role secured, type, timeline), and satisfaction scores — presented in a format you can share with leadership.

Can we offer this to a single team or department, not the whole company?

Yes. Realign outplacement scales from a single affected team to a company-wide restructuring. We design the program to fit the scope of your transition.

Is there a minimum number of employees?

There's no hard minimum. We've supported transitions of one senior leader and reductions affecting hundreds. Talk to our team and we'll find the right fit.
