Hospitals and healthcare systems now face significant challenges in physician recruitment and it has become a top priority for most medical facilities. In fact, it is estimated that within 10 years the United States will face a physician shortage of nearly 100,000. In a recent study, “2003 Survey of Hospital Physician Recruitment Trends,” 85% of the hospitals surveyed are actively recruiting physicians.
For our clients, Cyrus makes physician recruitment easier by providing online resources which allow recruiters and physicians themselves to:
- Access available physician opportunities
- Sort opportunities by related specialty, location, facility, etc.
- Allow physicians or recruiters to post CV's to apply online
- Syndicate physician opportunities through RSS feeds
- And more!
If you are thinking that physicians don't utilize online resources for available opportunities, in a recent survey by the New England Journal of Medicine 45% of physician respondents indicated they would use online job search sites if
they began an opportunity search today. Of those respondents, more than half said the site’s reputation (52%) and ease of use (52%) were important qualities.
Let Cyrus help enable your physician recruitment efforts with strategic online initiatives that drive results.
