Finding Success with Jobs in Healthcare
Staffing Services for a Promising Medical Career Path
CREATING OPPORTUNITY: Discovering Skill Set
A recent graduate with a newly obtained RN license was looking to establish his career, but found it difficult to find a job on his own without prior experience as a registered nurse. The candidate had seven years of experience as a corpsman in the U.S. Navy, but he discovered that many healthcare facilities preferred to hire people with more specific nursing experience. He enlisted the help of Medical Resources Staffing Services.
Though the candidate lacked important civilian nursing experience, a medical staffing consultant was determined to help him find a job. The medical staffing consultant was impressed by his enthusiasm and discovered the candidate possessed remarkable supervisor and organization skills from his U.S. Navy career, which was used as a main selling point to market him to a large local medical facility.
The Medical Resources consultant then expressed to the hiring client how the candidate’s specialized skills directly related to the facility’s particular needs and how he would add value to the organization. The clinic director quickly became very interested in learning more about the candidate, and after interviewing him, agreed to hire him for a per diem nursing job.
The medical staffing consultant was able to create such a great match between candidate and client that as a result, the candidate remains the No. 1 choice for per diem nursing coverage at the clinic, working full time for the organization. Due to Medical Resources’ established relationship with the clinic director, its medical staffing consultant was able to open new doors of opportunity for the candidate. The candidate was so pleased with Medical Resources’ staffing services that he referred five of his nursing colleagues to the employment agency so they could benefit as well.
A WEALTH OF RESOURCES: Staffing for Every Career Path
A licensed vocational nurse approached Medical Resources in search of a per diem nursing opportunity that would serve as an interim solution while she conducted a simultaneous direct-hire job search on her own. Although she was only seeking temporary placement services, she ended up finding more than she was looking for.
A medical staffing consultant at Medical Resources arranged for the candidate to interview for a temporary LVN position with a local outpatient facility for a few months. After reviewing her qualifications, the outpatient facility decided to work with the candidate on a temporary basis.
The match between client and candidate worked out well. The candidate expressed how pleased she was to work at the outpatient facility, and the hiring manager at the outpatient facility took great interest in the candidate’s skills and talents. Shortly after, the client extended a full-time employment opportunity to the candidate once her temporary contract was complete, which she accepted.
THE APPRORIATE FIT: Identifying the Right Position
A single mother contacted Medical Resources for employment assistance after many unsuccessful attempts at finding a new job. She had been unemployed for some time and was ready to consider new opportunities and begin work as soon as possible, but didn’t know where to start.
A medical staffing consultant at Medical Resources took time to discover everything there was to know about the candidate, from her prior work experience to special skills, to her personality type and what she was looking for in her next position. After getting to know the candidate on a personal level, the medical staffing consultant was able to determine where her skills and abilities would me most valued. The consultant worked closely with the hiring manager at a medical administrative department at a local hospital who was looking to fill a medical billing position.
After reviewing her qualifications, the hiring manager agreed to hire the candidate on a contract basis. The candidate worked hard to prove herself in her new job, never showing up late or calling in sick despite the personal issues she dealt with being a single mom of two. The candidate also broke company records in the amount of billing she was able to complete in a month’s time.
The candidate impressed the hiring manager so much that her role was converted into a full-time position a few months after she began working. She expressed gratitude to Medical Resources for helping her find a stable position that drew upon her existing skills and also offered great compensation and benefits.
