Frequently asked questions

Why this exists

I built Rebound after watching smart people make expensive mistakes in the first week after a layoff — missed deadlines, panic applications, and decisions made from fear instead of information. This is the system I wish existed.

— Dustin
Who is this for?

People dealing with layoffs, firings, or real career disruption who need order fast. Not inspiration. Not theory. Order.

Is this career coaching?

No. This is triage, sequencing, and follow-through. It helps you stop the bleed, handle the right decisions first, and move again.

What is free?

The assessment, your first plan, the 72-hour checklist, and the core resource guides are free.

What is paid?

The 90-Day Rebound Toolkit is a one-time $49 purchase. Scripts, templates, weekly systems, and follow-up playbooks. No subscription.

Is my information private?

Yes. We use it to generate your plan and improve the product. We do not sell your data or run a disguised recruiting lead farm.

What if I have not been laid off yet?

Then this is prep, not panic. Better to get organized before the hit than after it.

The window is narrow

COBRA deadlines. Severance review windows. Unemployment filing cutoffs.

The next 48 hours are the most expensive to get wrong. Rebound tells you what to handle first — free, in 2 minutes.
