Ascend Does Things Differently

A New Economy Approach to Career Outplacement—cost effectiveness, personal service, and superlative quality

As a proven industry leader, Ascend offers a comprehensive and client-focused approach while offering a robust suite of services at an affordable price. Our main focus is to provide a career outplacement and transition plan that is both in alignment with the employer’s budget and goals and provides the released employee with the professional advisement they need to land a job in an expedite manner.

Many career transition companies are now employing a virtual-only model, emailing YouTube links, enlisting participants in mass job search “classes” and providing them with a 3-ring binder full of superfluous information.

Every client is different and unique and thus so are their needs. Our coaches are well-versed in specifically crafting a job search plan based on each client’s goals. We also understand the emotional element that can come along with any loss of employment and are quite experienced in working with clients from this perspective too.

At Ascend, providing a superior experience for both the providing company and released employee is our number one priority. No hidden administrative costs, fees, or fine print. You only pay for what you need—period. Every outplacement plan and service we offer comes with a 100% Client Satisfaction Guarantee.

We will stay engaged and committed until the client reaches their goal of bona fide full-time employment.
