Healthcare IT departments have changed drastically in the last decade, but digital health recruitment techniques are only now catching up with the trend. This is creating exciting opportunities for both employers who contract with modern recruitment agencies as well as those looking to land a world in the digital sector of the health care industry.
New recruitment techniques have focused largely on using databases to match talent to available positions based on skillset and experience. Some of the top recruitment agencies in the country now have hundreds of positions listed and can automatically check to see if there’s an individual with the skills needed to fill the job. This has helped to dramatically reduce the amount of time needed to fill a job. Other techniques include radical reapplications of traditional digital and social marketing techniques to reach a wider base.
