Choose which work to handle internally
Job advertising and recruiting can complement one another. A board placement does not necessarily include sourcing, screening or interview coordination; confirm the actual features and terms of any provider you evaluate.
- Consider the staff time available to manage incoming applications.
- Identify whether direct candidate outreach is required.
- Compare the complete scope and cost instead of comparing headline prices alone.
Prepare the role brief
Write down the information a candidate needs to evaluate the position before the search begins.
- Specify the surgical discipline and credentials required.
- Document theatre access, imaging, anesthesia support and equipment.
- Clarify case ownership, referrals and perioperative responsibilities.
Plan the work location in St. Louis.
Distinguish a St. Louis city hospital from a Kirkwood or Chesterfield workplace. Give the actual Missouri address and identify any additional sites before discussing the role.
A St. Louis search should distinguish primary care, urgent care and a hospital with continuing emergency coverage. Describe the service being staffed, the support present on that shift and who takes responsibility after the incoming doctor leaves.
Review St. Louis-area recruiting coverage →Verify Missouri credentials before agreeing the clinical start.
Record the candidate's current Missouri license status and verification date. Resolve restrictions with the licensing authority and verify any required specialty credentials separately.
