Working with a Healthcare Recruiter
Optigy recruiters specialize by role, like physician, nurse, allied health, administrative or healthcare executive, and by role type, like permanent, locums, PRN, etc. When a candidate applies to a role or joins Optigy's talent network, the recruiter assigned to that type of role reaches out directly.
Yes. Optigy does not share a candidate's information or submit them for a role without their knowledge and consent.
It's possible, but not common. Since recruiters are assigned by role type rather than by candidate, a unique candidate exploring opportunities across multiple specialties, physician and healthcare executive roles, for example, may be connected with more than one recruiter. Most candidates build a relationship with a single recruiter throughout their search.
Applying and Interviewing
Applying through Optigy isn't like applying through a general job board. When a candidate finds a role they're interested in, all they need to submit is their contact information and resume, no lengthy application forms. A recruiter will follow up directly to learn more about the candidate's goals and next steps.
Yes. Recruiters provide interview preparation, including insight into the hiring organization, likely interview questions and guidance specific to the role.
There's no limit. Candidates can explore and apply to multiple opportunities, and their recruiter can help prioritize based on fit and timeline.
Credentialing and Licensure
Yes. Optigy supports candidates through credentialing and payer enrollment as part of the placement process, particularly for locum tenens and locums-to-perm placements.
Optigy's recruiters understand multi-state licensure requirements and can guide candidates through what's needed to become eligible to work in a new state.
Credentialing timelines vary by state and specialty, but Optigy works to keep the process moving as efficiently as possible so it doesn't delay a start date.
Pay and Compensation
Pay is ultimately set by the hiring organization, based on factors like specialty, experience, location and staffing model, permanent, locum tenens or PRN. A candidate will have clear compensation details before any offer is presented.
Yes. Optigy's recruiters support candidates through offer negotiation to help ensure compensation reflects their experience and the market.
Benefits vary by assignment and staffing model. A candidate's recruiter will outline what's included for any specific role before an offer is accepted.
