MedicalRecruiting.com maintains a curated roster of pre-vetted physician, nurse practitioner, and physician assistant candidates who are actively seeking new opportunities and have authorized our medical recruiters to share their profiles with verified employers. Every featured candidate has completed a structured intake with a specialty-aligned recruiter, has had references verified, and is interview-ready. All candidate identities are confidential. Full details shared only with verified employers. This page is built for hospitals, groups, and platforms with active or upcoming searches who want to evaluate available talent before opening a formal recruitment engagement.
Featured candidate profiles on MedicalRecruiting.com display the candidate's specialty, board certification status, years in practice, target geography, target start date, and high-level practice model preferences. Personally identifying information — name, current employer, exact location, contact details, and CV — is withheld from the public page and shared only with verified employers under a signed confidentiality understanding.
To engage a featured candidate, employers submit a brief inquiry through the candidate's profile page including the employer organization, the role being considered, and any timing or compensation context. A specialty-aligned medical recruiter reviews the inquiry, confirms employer verification, and — if the candidate has approved the match — releases the full CV and coordinates a confidential introduction call. Most introductions happen within 24 to 48 business hours.
There is no upfront fee for engaging a featured candidate. Standard contingency placement fees apply only on a successful start, and every placement carries the 90-day replacement guarantee. Employers can review and inquire on multiple featured candidates in parallel without any commitment.
Most active candidates in the healthcare market are responding reactively to job postings — sending out applications, hoping for callbacks, and managing offers piecemeal. Featured candidates on MedicalRecruiting.com are different: they have proactively engaged a medical recruiter, completed a structured intake covering geography, compensation, schedule, and family priorities, agreed to confidential representation, and authorized targeted outreach to a short list of well-fit employers. They are interview-ready, motivated, and represented by a recruiter who can move quickly.
Many featured candidates are passively employed — currently in a stable role but exploring a specific kind of next opportunity that is not widely available. These are exactly the candidates that conventional job postings never reach, because they are not actively browsing job boards. A featured candidate roster gives employers efficient access to passive talent that would otherwise require months of cold outreach.
Featured candidate profiles span every provider type and every clinical specialty. Categories currently active include:
Confidentiality is the foundation of the featured candidate program. We do not list candidate names, current employers, exact addresses, or contact details on the public profile page. We do not contact a candidate's current employer, residency program, or fellowship director under any circumstances without explicit written consent. We share full CV and contact information with an employer only after the candidate has approved that specific introduction.
Employer inquiries are subject to verification: we confirm the employer organization, the hiring contact, and the specific role context before releasing candidate details. Employers receiving candidate information agree to handle it confidentially and to use it solely for the purpose of evaluating the candidate for the named role. Candidates can withdraw from the featured roster at any time and can decline any introduction without explanation.
Featured candidate profiles display only specialty, board certification status, years in practice, target geography, target start date, and high-level preferences. Names, current employers, exact locations, and CVs are never displayed publicly.

Most introductions happen within 24 to 48 business hours.
Once a candidate approves the introduction, the first confidential call between employer and candidate is typically scheduled within 5 to 7 business days. From there, formal interview coordination, site visits, and offer discussions follow the standard recruitment cycle for that specialty — typically 3 to 8 weeks for primary care and high-volume specialties, longer for subspecialty searches.
No. Browsing the featured candidate roster and submitting inquiries is completely free for verified employers. Standard contingency placement fees — typically 15% to 25% of first-year guaranteed compensation — apply only when a featured candidate accepts an offer and starts in the role. Every placement carries the 90-day replacement guarantee.
Candidates are added to the featured roster after completing a structured intake call with a specialty-aligned medical recruiter, providing a current CV, agreeing to confidential representation, and authorizing the recruiter to share their profile with well-fit employers. There is no fee for candidates at any stage. Candidates can withdraw from the roster at any time and can decline any introduction without explanation.
It depends on the candidate. Most featured candidates are seeking permanent direct-hire opportunities — that is the default profile we curate for the roster. A subset of featured candidates are open to either permanent or locum tenens engagements, particularly experienced subspecialty providers who use locum work to test new geographies before committing to a permanent move. The candidate's preferred engagement model (permanent only, locum only, or open to both) is displayed on the public profile so employers can filter inquiries appropriately.
Yes. The featured candidate roster supports filtering by provider type (physician, NP, PA, executive), specialty or population focus, target geography (state, metro, or region), target start date, and preferred employment model. Employers can save searches and receive notifications when new candidates matching their saved criteria are added to the roster. Saved-search notifications are particularly useful for hospitals and groups with ongoing replacement-search needs in specific specialties.
A typical contingency recruiter pipeline is built reactively, search by search — when an employer opens a search, the recruiter sources candidates against that specific role. The featured candidate roster is built proactively, candidate by candidate — pre-vetted providers who have authorized representation in advance and are ready to engage on the right opportunity within days, not weeks. For hospitals and groups with predictable hiring volume in priority specialties, the featured roster compresses the typical 21-day intake-to-slate cycle into something closer to a same-day match.
