The two challenges facing today’s healthcare workforce

❖ With a rapid jump towards e-hospitality, the industry is going through a massive revamp. The recruitment process of medical staff is heading to a candidate centric economy.

❖ According to a study published by the U.S Bureau of Labor and Statistics, the recruitment graph shows a spike of up to 19% by 2024- that is a spurt of 2.3 million new jobs waiting to happen!

1- The Great Debate- Education or Experience?

❖ Employers face the daunting task of picking the right candidate on these two diverse terms. Should you pick the Graduate with 10 years of experience in 2 high profile healthcare facilities in his belt or the Master Graduate with just one year of internship?

❖ Some employers do prefer experience but to be fair, most would rather lean towards the kid with the biggest gun- the master’s degree.

❖ At Airmid, we believe it’s necessary to find the balance between the two. Education is important but quality experience matters to improve your facilities progress.

2- Yep, salary

❖ The employer who offers the highest paycheque as bait wins the candidate. Those who can’t afford such demands generally end up with despair. Why bother chasing the high rollers?

❖ You can steer your recruitment process by offering better packages such as career growth, flexible working time shifts, friendly environment for work.

❖ Let go of the candidates who are only after monetary gains and wait for the right ones with the passion to serve and care for their mission

Finally,

❖ Recruitment of Healthcare professionals is a complicated process.

❖ Its not as easy as it might seem on paper. Consider hiring the wrong candidate- it can be a miss fire and potentially scuttle the hospital’s reputation!

❖ With the competition offering competitive packages, how do you intend to stand out among the pack?

❖ What are the creative tactics that your institution intends to capture the right candidates with a passion to serve and stick to their mission?
