Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Johanna is performing the role of an outplacement counselor, as she is providing the ex-employee with strategies for finding a new job. This role typically involves helping employees who have been laid off or terminated to transition into new employment by providing career counseling, resume writing assistance, job search strategies, and other support services. CEOs, mediators, and arbitrators typically do not perform this type of role, and while Johanna may be a volunteer at Highlanders Corp.'s employee assistance program, her specific role in this case is that of an outplacement counselor.
