At Allora, we specialize in career coaching — strategy, job search, interview prep, offer negotiation, leadership development, and strategic relocation planning. Two things regularly fall outside that scope: the legal side of an international move, and active recruiting support from someone working the market on your behalf.
If you’re weighing a move, our Relocation Planner (part of the Allora Tools included in your coaching plan) helps you assess and decide between countries and cities, then organize the immigration process step by step. And this isn’t theoretical for us: Kelly has lived and worked across multiple countries and recruited across the US and EMEA — including building out tech recruiting functions — and Rachel, our UK and France relocation specialist, has personally lived in Hong Kong, Bangkok, France, and the UK.
Over the years we’ve worked with a handful of professionals across immigration law and technical recruiting we trust enough to recommend by name. Here they are.
For Legal & Immigration Support
Allora Collective does not provide immigration, legal, or visa advice. For that, we recommend the following professionals.
Lexidy Law Boutique
Lexidy is an international law firm supporting individuals and businesses with immigration, business, tax, and real estate matters, with offices across Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Greece, and Mexico. Their approach focuses on clear, practical guidance for people and companies looking to move, work, and invest internationally.
“Lexidy team was great, highly recommend! Lexidy provided the support, communication and guidance I needed to successfully complete my process and I recommend them to my clients and friends.” — Kelly’s full review on Trustpilot

For Recruiting & Placement Support
Allora Collective is a coaching practice, not a placement or staffing agency — we help you build the strategy, not submit your resume on your behalf. If you’re looking for active recruiting support with US startup and growth-stage tech companies, we recommend:
Tangerine Search
Tangerine Search is a boutique recruiting agency founded by April Starlight in 2019, specializing in placing candidates with US startup and growth-stage tech companies across software engineering, product, design, data, and leadership roles.
You may recognize April from Career Coach, Internal Recruiter & Agency Recruiter: The 3 People Every Job Seeker Needs, a video she filmed with Kelly and Chez.
Browse open roles and upload your resume for future matching: tangerinesearch.net/jobs
Prefer a warm introduction? Email us at [email protected] and we’ll connect you directly with April and her team.
One More Thing
None of these professionals are part of the Allora Collective team, and none of what they offer overlaps with our coaching services — we just trust them enough to point you their way.
