Often times, medical professionals that are seeking to relocate, or are simply looking for a new position, are reluctant to seek out the help of a professional medical recruiter. This reluctance may stem from hearing "horror stories", or stories of others that had very bad experiences working with a professional recruiter.Or, the job seeking medical professional often doesn't understand how utilizing a recruiter works, so they don't investigate the possibility of using one.
The truth is, just as not all doctors are alike, or all medical practices are not alike, all recruiters are not alike. Now make no mistake, there are definitely some medical recruiters in the business that are motivated strictly by money, and by a desire to close the deal. Recruiters such as these have questionable people skills, and no real desire to help the job seeker, no matter what it takes. This type of recruiter will talk to candidates as briefly as possibly, only get the information that they absolutely need to attempt to get the candidate placed into a job they are representing, and make little or no attempt to establish a good relationship with the person seeking the job. And quite frequently, when an unscrupulous recruiter obtains the resume of a candidate, they will "shotgun" it all over the country to various clients that they represent, and hope they get lucky. Recruiters with business practices such as these are "a dime a dozen", and are the reason some job seeking candidates shy away from using the services of a professional recruiter.
The good news is, that even though there are some bad recruiters and recruiting firms out there, there are some good ones. One of the best is Cornerstone Medical Recruiting.Cornerstone Medical Recruiting, LLC , based in St. Louis Missouri, is a medical recruiting firm that specializes in recruiting Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants.
