Healthcare recruitment agencies help job seekers find work as well as helping employers cover vacant positions. Agencies aim to recruit suitable candidates and then bridge the gap between the candidate and the employer. Nowadays companies are getting more and more dependent on healthcare recruitment agencies as they don't have the time or the expertise in-house.

Healthcare recruitment agencies generally help candidates find either a permanent placement, temporary assignments or even fixed term contracts. Agencies tend to specialise in different sectors ranging from the placement of GPs, Hospital doctors and nurses to Allied Healthcare professionals. Provided your skills and training meet the requirements of the agency they will generally consider taking you on to their books. There are lots of benefits to candidates and employers when they decide to use an agency, one of the biggest benefits is the time that can be saved. There is no need to run from organisation to organisation submitting your CV, all the time consuming leg work is done for you. Likewise it saves valuable management time for employers as well as eliminating the cost of advertisements.

UK healthcare recruitment agencies try to follow a simple and transparent path when they are recruiting candidates. Most agencies will have an easy to follow registration process on their websites. This is usually in a downloadable format as well as allowing you submit most of the requested information on line. A lot of agencies are governed by the Commission for Social Care and the final part of any registration could involve a face to face interview. There is no guarantee that the agency will accept you onto their books. Alternatively you can call the agency direct to have a registration pack sent out. Healthcare is a highly regulated area and you will need to provide (at your own cost) an up to date Criminal Records Bureau Check (CRB) or a police check if you are coming from outside the UK. Healthcare recruitment agencies are usually commission based. This commission is generally a percentage of your total pay and paid by the employer not you. It is in the interest of all parties to ensure that only suitable candidates are put forward to positions.

Summary : Healthcare recruitment agencies will act as the interface between healthcare professionals seeking employment and employers looking for suitable candidates to fill vacancies in their organization. UK healthcare recruitment agencies generally follow a simple and transparent path of recruitment.
