Though relatively young, The Hire Connection (THC) is well known for matching qualified candidates with employers and providers. In fact, THC founder Van Allen, with over 20 years in healthcare recruiting is considered a pioneer by many in the industry.
Better Results
Under Allen’s leadership, THC’s unique approach to recruiting, which fully utilizes technology for better results, more efficiently helps candidates and facilities realize their goals. Personally, we think every recruiting firm should work this way; but then again, we’re kind of glad they don’t.
But perhaps you’re wondering, “How do I know what firm to select or which recruiter to work with as I begin my journey”. When making such an important decision, we suggest you start with these three considerations:
1. Have They Visited
Always ask the recruiter if they have personally visited the location they are sharing with you. If the answer is no, they are probably representing a Contingent firm that hasn’t done all their homework. This is not to say Contingent firms misrepresent opportunities. They do their best, but their services are limited, and without a site visit they are not sufficiently informed. As a result, you’re left with an incomplete overview of the community and opportunity, and a whole lot of questions.
At THC we get to know our Opportunities firsthand and develop working relationships so we can confidently represent them in detail. This eliminates some of the potential train wrecks during the interview process.
2. How do They Select
Ask the recruiter how they conduct their selection process in terms of what opportunities they represent. If they present every opportunity that comes down the pike, rather than ones that meet your criteria, they may be wasting your time.
At THC we carefully hand-pick our opportunities and make sure they initially meet our rigid 3-pronged criteria: First, they must provide a competitive compensation and benefits package with tremendous upside potential. Secondly, we check out their leadership team: Is it forward thinking enough to survive in this fast moving ever-changing healthcare world? Finally, we make sure each opportunity provides an environment conducive to a candidate’s practice preferences, and additionally allows room for professional and personal growth.
3. What Are the Politics Like
Ask your recruiter what they know about the opportunity politics. Though turf wars and strained relationships are common, nobody wants to walk into a war zone unprepared.
At THC, we research all aspects of every opportunity to make sure no candidate enters a position littered with land mines.
Incidentally, these are just three of the considerations we sift through before officially partnering with an employer.
We Take Great Pride
At THC, because our team takes great pride in providing every candidate with an amazing placement experience from start to finish, we work exceptionally hard to get the best results. Hopefully, our efforts today will cause you to think of The Hire Connection first in the future.The healthcare recruiting industry has two traditional approaches to the way recruiting companies will use for placement of healthcare professionals. Let's take a quick look at each approach and then The Hire Connection approach!
Traditional Contingent Approach
The contingent approach is sometimes considered a value, because no payment is required until when or IF, a candidate is placed. Contingent agencies offer limited client services and sourcing ability, which can prolong recruitment efforts and have a negative impact on the quality of your outcome.
Contingent agencies represent the candidate...not you or your company! How much incentive do you think they have to make a placement at your facility versus others?
Traditional Retained Approach
The retained approach offers a comprehensive recruitment strategy that designates staff, resources and services to your search.
Retained agencies are expensive, difficult to budget...and if the search goes unfilled, the client loses EVERYTHING they have invested in the search. There also may be additional advertising charges and the average financial risk if the search goes unfilled is $28,000.
The Hire Connection Approach!
The Hire Connection was founded to provide a comprehensive recruitment solution that is financially safe and affordable.
We implement a full-service recruitment strategy with a unique money back guarantee to substantially mitigate your financial risk.
