Conducted immediately upon transferee/recruit’s arrival Presentation of the Quest Information Packet & Thomas Guide Discussion of lifestyle issues: transportation, education, housing, recreation, etc. Additional topics for international transferees: Social Security application, U.S. health care system, credit and banking issues, etc. Large, laminated area maps are used as visual aids Involves one to two hours of face-to-face relocation counseling Well prepared with the information gathered during the pre-arrival phone interview with the transferee, a Quest Relocation Counselor will meet face-to-face with the transferee upon his/her arrival to Southern California. Quest’s Relocation Counselors are not realtors; they are relocation specialists who live and breathe the Southland. They provide the transferee with first-hand information about communities, housing, and education in a neutral format. The meeting is designed to begin the process of settling-in, answer the transferee’s many questions, allow the transferee and his assigned Relocation Counselor a chance to interact with each other face-to-face to formulate a game plan for the next step of home finding. At the end of the Orientation meeting, the transferee is assured of Quest’s commitment to assist throughout their settling-in process.
