iRelaunch is all about getting professionals returning from career break back to work. Our mission is that every company with an in-house, entry level, university internship program, should be running an in-house, mid-career return to work program side-by-side. We work directly with employers to establish and expand these mid-career return to work programs.
A strong advocate for the unique value that returning professionals bring to the workforce, and for the employers that engage with them, iRelaunch leads a national community of over 82,000 relaunchers who are returning to work after career breaks ranging from 1 to over 20 years. To get our weekly and monthly media roundups and newsletters that feature return to work jobs, programs, events, articles, success stories, tools and resources for your relaunch, make sure you are on our mailing list - go to iRelaunch.com and you can sign up on our home page.
iRelaunch CEO Carol Fishman Cohen's TED Talk "How to get back to work after a career break" has nearly 3.5 million views and has been translated into 30 languages.
The STEM Reentry Task Force initiative we co-lead with the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) now involves 32 global companies, each charged with launching its own in-house return to work program for returning technical professionals and professionals in other functional areas. To date, 23 member companies have launched their programs, involving over 600 relaunchers, and 86% of them have been hired when their programs completed.
iRelaunch produces the iRelaunch Return-to-Work Conferences, the signature event nationally for the relaunch market.
iRelaunch was founded in 2007 by Carol Fishman Cohen and Vivian Steir Rabin, two Harvard Business School alumnae who co-authored the career reentry strategy book Back on the Career Track. iRelaunch is the pioneering company in the career reentry "space." We established the space.
Carol's relaunch at Bain Capital after 11 years out of the full time workforce is documented in a Harvard Business School case study. As a "relauncher" herself, Carol understands the challenges of returning to work after a multi-year career break first hand, and has spoken with thousands of professionals who successfully returned to work after a hiatus. Carol speaks and consults globally about career reentry strategy and is frequently quoted on the topic in the national press.
