Healthcare Recruiting Tips on How to Source Candidates – Webinar Recap

Finding new candidates can be challenging, let alone finding highly qualified candidates. Healthcare recruiting in particular is growing increasingly competitive, and with healthcare poised to be the largest industry measured by the number of jobs by 2020, the demand for talent is only expected to climb.

Which is why it’s no surprise that the healthcare recruiting and hiring community turned out for our Healthcare Sourcing Secrets Webinar hosted by one of the leading voices on the topic, Greg Hawkes (@GregHawkesHRSTB).

Greg provided healthcare sourcers with an abundance of resources to search for the best physician, nursing, and clinical candidates. Naturally, attendees showed their appreciation on Twitter. Below are the top shared #TalkHR tweets to help recap the event.
