Recruiter-led outplacement, built on real hiring systems.

When you have to let people go, how you support them matters. It shapes how they leave, how your remaining team feels, and what people say about working there. HighlightTA gives departing employees access to active recruiters using the same tools and market knowledge that hiring teams use every day.

Not a traditional outplacement firm

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
HighlightTA is not a traditional outplacement firm, this is shown with an image of a woman and a man using a laptop to help them find a job faster using a real recruiter led outplacement service.

We are an on-demand talent team working inside scaling companies every day. That is what we bring to outplacement. Not generic career coaching or a slide deck about updating your CV.

Employees get real clarity on how hiring works right now, from recruiters who are actively filling roles, reviewing applications and making decisions inside modern ATS systems. That perspective is genuinely hard to find anywhere else.

Recruiter-led, not coach-led

Every session is run by an active recruiter using the same scoring, screening habits and hiring patterns they apply in their day-to-day work.

Employees apply to a private HighlightTA role and see their application from the recruiter's view inside a real ATS. The reasons behind hiring decisions stop being a mystery.

Built for today’s market

Guidance is grounded in what recruiters are actually doing now. Role calibration, company targeting and interview expectations based on live market activity, not theory.

You are probably already in one of these situations.

WHEN TO USE OUTPLACEMENT

You are going through a restructure, redundancy round or cost-reduction exercise

01

A merger, acquisition or integration is changing your headcount

02

You are losing senior or specialist people you want to treat well on the way out

03

Your employer brand matters and you want exits to be handled with genuine care

04

Offshoring, role migration or contract wind-downs are creating departures

05

What you get as an employer

WHY IT MATTERS TO YOU

How you treat people on the way out is noticed by everyone who stays. A credible, substantive outplacement program is not a box-tick. It is a signal of the kind of company you are.

Employees who feel genuinely supported leave on better terms. That matters for Glassdoor, LinkedIn and word of mouth.

Two plans. The same standard of recruiter expertise.

PLANS

Both plans are led by active recruiters and run on real ATS platforms. The difference is the level of support and how long it lasts.

ESSENTIALS

Two focused recruiter-led sessions that give employees a clear, structured starting point. They learn how hiring actually works, where they stand and what to do next. It cuts through a lot of the noise that makes job searches so frustrating.

  • Live ATS walkthrough so they can see exactly how recruiters view applications

  • Resume, LinkedIn and application reviewed through a recruiter lens

  • Role, level and company targeting based on live market demand

  • Interview fundamentals and practical networking guidance

A good fit for employees early in their search who need direction and a solid foundation.

PREMIUM

Four recruiter-led sessions plus three months of ongoing access. For employees navigating a more complex or competitive search, this gives them a real partner throughout the whole process, not just at the start.

  • Everything in Essentials, with deeper diagnostics across each area

  • Advanced interview preparation across multiple rounds

  • Offer evaluation and negotiation guidance

  • Three months of ongoing async recruiter access as the search develops

A strong fit for senior, specialist or high-priority employees in more competitive roles.
