Meeting Unique Challenges in Healthcare Recruitment

Every service is different, and the right candidate must bring not only the right skills, but also the right personality and cultural fit. Check out our latest Healthcare Assistant jobs HERE.


Finding the Right Healthcare Assistant

Our client explained that their service was quite unique, meaning the right skills and personal attributes were absolutely essential. They shared:


"What stood out to me was how Shannon not only listened carefully but took a genuine interest in understanding the service we offer, the nature of the role, and the specific characteristics we were seeking in a staff member"


This deeper level of engagement made the difference. By asking the right questions and showing real interest in the service, Shannon was able to reduce pressure on the client during a very busy period.


The candidate Shannon recommended immediately impressed at interview and was the perfect fit for the role.


“That level of engagement really took the pressure off me during a very busy period and was reflected in the excellent candidate she recommended — someone I was immediately impressed with at interview and happy to proceed with.”


Within days of starting, the candidate was already making a strong contribution.


“Overall, it was a very positive experience which resulted in us gaining a strong team member who has hit the ground running and is already highly regarded by both members and staff.”


What set Shannon apart wasn’t just finding the right person — it was how she supported the client throughout the compliance and onboarding stages.


“Shannon kept me well informed throughout the compliance process, acted as an excellent link between our service and the candidate, and checked in after the candidate started to ensure things were going smoothly.”


This hands-on support gave the client peace of mind, knowing compliance and communication were being handled seamlessly. Discover your healthcare hiring options HERE.
