Recruitment Services
We can assist you in your search for non-physician providers (clinical technicians) and new Practice Managers/Personal Assistants/Receptionists and Directors of Nursing, Nurse Unit Managers and Clinical staff. Some of the many benefits of working with us include:
Strengthen Recruitment Efforts
A successful healthcare and hospital facility is possible through recruiting and hiring top candidates. Working with Healthcare Management & Advisory Services (HMSA) provides a team specifically for recruiting to streamline finding top candidates.
Hire Qualified Staff
Hiring qualified candidates is vital for any specialist medical practice / day hospital/ private hospital but is often one of the largest drains of time and resources. Our team can make hiring more cost-efficient while finding and recruiting top candidates.
Our recruitment process includes:
- Step 1: Intake call: Every new search starts with an intake call, during which we learn about your healthcare facility’s strengths, opportunities for improvement, and challenges. We spend time with the owner and recommend time with other providers at the healthcare facility to obtain the best description of the position and the qualities that would make a great hire. During this intake call, we also review the hiring process, duration, and typical hiring process with you.
- Step 2: Initial Search—We create a broad search and filter the applications that may fit your criteria. After screening against the initial criteria, we conduct 3 to 5 online interviews.
- Step 3: 2nd-stage interviews—We work with the interviewees from Step 2 and recommend 2 to 3 candidates for your consideration. We coordinate and attend interviews with you and your chosen team members (if desired). However, we also support you if you prefer to undertake this round of interviews without HMSA attendance.
- Step 4: Offer and Negotiations: Due to our extensive history of working with specialist medical practitioners and hospitals, we can help start the conversation on the right foot and ultimately work through the negotiation process with you to ensure we can optimise the compensation package for your new employee. We draft the employment agreement and letter of offer on your behalf and coordinate the commencement date of your new employee with you and your team.
Unbiased Hiring
Bias is common in hiring, especially when an HR department is passionate about finding top candidates to meet the practice’s culture or goals. To help a practice hire top talent, we can remove the risk of hiring bias and find and recruit employees based on facts rather than observations.
Terminations/Redundancies
All specialist medical practitioners, day hospital and private hospital owners, and team members who do not offer the services required to fulfil their initial role. We can facilitate the termination process with your employee to minimise business risk while ensuring a smooth exit from the specialist medical practice/day hospital/private hospital for your current employee.
