Are healthcare staffing issues affecting your ability to provide quality patient care?

Duke University Health System Success Story
Duke University Health System (DUHS) first engaged Hueman on an RPO project assignment to strengthen its internal talent acquisition strategy by providing end-to-end recruiting for RNs and FT employees in corporate positions.
After the initial project's success, DUHS chose to enter into a long-term RPO partnership with us.
LET'S TAKE IT FROM THE TOP!
What is Healthcare RPO?
Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a form of business outsourcing where an employer, like a hospital or health system, transfers all or parts of its recruitment process to an RPO provider.
Our healthcare RPO services are flexible and fully customizable to the needs of your organization. We have partnered with several health systems that rely on us for sourcing assistance during peak periods and others that trust us to handle their entire talent acquisition function.
Our responsibilities include sourcing, recruiting, marketing, screening, selection, offer management, interview preparation and scheduling, due diligence, adherence to DEI initiatives, pre-hire paperwork, and onboarding.
You decide how much recruiting help you need.

Are Premium Labor Charges Impacting Your Bottom Line?
Many hospitals and healthcare facilities need help finding skilled staff, leading them to rely on travel nurses and staffing agencies to fill gaps in their schedules. However, this convenience comes with a high price tag!
Use our calculator to determine your organization’s premium for a single traveler. When you’re ready to replace your travelers with full-time staff, we’re here to help.
Our team can scale our RPO solutions to meet your changing hiring needs. We are dedicated to being a flexible and reliable partner for your project-based, hospital expansion, or other talent acquisition needs.
Adaptable Recruitment Technology
We have a suite of cutting-edge technology ready to deploy, or we can seamlessly integrate with your existing tech stack. Some healthcare partners like us to work within their Applicant Tracking System (ATS), and others ask us to implement one for them.
Experienced Recruiters
Our healthcare recruiters are highly skilled and fully dedicated to your organization. Their recruitment expertise in the healthcare industry enables them to swiftly navigate complexities and ensure the best talent for your team.
Reduced Cost-Per-Hire
With our healthcare RPO services, you pay per recruiter (or seat), not per job. Depending on your team’s requisition count, this can mean significant savings for your organization compared to staffing or direct hire fees.

Reduce Your Premium Labor Costs
With Hueman's Travel Nurse Reduction Program, we help your system save significant labor costs by filling openings with core staff nurses.
Our team leverages value-based hiring strategies, top-tier technology, and the expertise of our recruiters to find qualified nurses, all while saving you money.
Healthcare systems rely on Advanced Practice Professionals (APPs), such as nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs), to meet rising patient demand and maintain a high standard of care. The need for skilled APPs has reached a critical point due to the projected physician shortage and increased demand for NPs.
Leveraging 27 years of healthcare recruitment knowledge, Hueman enables organizations to efficiently and affordably recruit advanced practice providers. Our recruitment partnership allows you to strengthen your workforce, drive revenue growth, and decrease premium labor expenses linked to locum tenens and contingent staffing.
Allied health workers make up over 60% of the U.S. healthcare workforce and are crucial to our nation’s health. However, ongoing labor shortages in this field make it challenging for healthcare facilities to recruit and retain these professionals.
At Hueman, we leverage decades of healthcare recruitment experience to provide tailored solutions. We quickly and cost-effectively source top talent, reducing reliance on premium labor and improving patient care outcomes.
MDs are essential for healthcare, serving as both patient care leaders and financial drivers. Despite this, there has been a sharp rise in physician shortages during the pandemic, while burnout levels continue to be alarmingly high.
With Hueman, your organization will be ready to meet the demands of MD staffing in today's evolving healthcare landscape while maintaining competitiveness. We provide personalized recruitment solutions that not only streamline hiring but also offer exceptional candidate experiences, attracting and retaining top MD talent.
Attract AMC Candidates That Match Your Focus & Initiatives
Academic Medical Centers are hubs for cutting-edge research, innovation, and enhanced clinical outcomes. The healthcare professionals who walk the halls have a passion for creativity and innovation and are proud of the way they're moving the industry forward.
When our recruiting team works with AMCs, we go to work finding highly-skilled healthcare professionals who share this same passion.
Maintain seamless healthcare operations, even during strikes.
Hueman provides many services to help our healthcare RPO partners continue operating during unionized labor disputes. We offer a comprehensive strike staffing strategy that ensures quality control and avoids disruptions to patient care.
Our goal is to help hospitals meet their commitments to their patients and communities.

OUR MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Have Questions About RPO?
You’ve come to the right place. We get a lot of great questions. You might even say we get them frequently. And, if you don’t find the answer you’re looking for here, feel free to contact us with your question. Don't see your question listed? Contact one of our recruitment experts.
How much does RPO cost?
The cost of our RPO solution varies based on several factors, including hiring volumes, position types (hard-to-fill, volume), number of locations, number of hiring managers, requested services, and other variables. Our typical pricing models include:
i. Flat monthly service fee ii. Cost per hire iii. Monthly management fee and cost per hire
What is the benefit of outsourcing? Why wouldn’t we just hire our own recruiter(s)?
Typically, Hueman can be 50-100% more effective than internal recruiters, resulting in increased velocity and throughput. Additionally, our cost includes, marketing, technology, leadership, training, etc.
Lastly, an RPO partnership isn’t just recruiters; our full-service solution comprises an army of subject matter experts in talent acquisition strategy, recruitment technology, digital recruitment marketing, SEO, EVP, operations, and more.
How long does it take to implement our RPO solution?
Typically, our implementations last 4 to 6 weeks. Our implementation strategy for each new engagement is customized based on the defined partnership objectives and scope of the agreement. We work collaboratively with key personnel from your organization to define and build our solution.
What we have found is if we put the time into implementation now, we can sprint later. Depending on your needs today, we may have other services that could support your team until our RPO solution is up and running.
How do your recruiters integrate with our organization if they are not onsite?
Hueman takes a very prescriptive approach to implementation. We walk through a knowledge transfer process to learn everything – from benefits and pay, to speaking with your recruitment leadership and hiring managers to understand how you currently articulate your value proposition. Most importantly, however, is what we call our “road show.”
“The Hueman Recruitment Team” will conduct on-site visits to meet stakeholders and counterparts and begin to build relationships. Ideally, our recruiters will attend your new-hire orientation as if they are a new employee. Being on-site allows us to get a sense of your culture and all the little things, which helps make an outsourced partnership not feel outsourced.
If I use an RPO provider, will I lose control of my talent acquisition program?
Hueman’s RPO Solution keeps you fully informed, giving you unprecedented control over your TA program. We provide detailed reports and insights that many of our partners have never had before.
These insights enable you to offer valuable information to your organization’s leaders and drive strategic business decisions. Partnering with us means you have an experienced team to validate your strategies with data and expertise from other organizations.
Do you provide onboarding support (background, drug screen, etc.)?
Yes. We can deploy best-in-class digital onboarding systems if you don’t have one already and the resources to collect candidates' documents.
Can you flex up and down as our hiring needs change?
Yes. One of the key advantages of an RPO partnership is the ability to flex up or down based on your business needs. Typically, we will have a standard lead time to ramp up or roll off recruiters.
Will you use my ATS or provide us with an ATS to use?
The short answer is yes, we can. However, we have options. We can evaluate your current ATS and optimize it as needed. If you don’t have an existing ATS or if we need to upgrade your ATS, we can provide an ATS that makes sense for your business.
What technologies do you use?
Our team uses handpicked, cutting-edge recruitment technology tools to assist our people in sourcing the best candidates. We know that no one technology or solution is right for every organization that’s why we have relationships with 80+ technology vendors, in addition to consistently vetting new technologies.
We pride ourselves on our flexibility, adaptability, and our ability to custom blend the right technology platforms to meet the unique needs of our partners. These characteristics allow us to consistently respond to the newest recruitment trends and technologies available on the market – and even some that aren’t available yet.
Do you provide reporting?
Yes. Reporting on key metrics is critical to success, as is communication. Our Reporting team establishes the baseline metrics and manages ongoing reporting, including monthly and quarterly client reporting and daily/weekly internal Hueman reporting. We communicate this information and continually ask for feedback to ensure we meet your hiring manager’s needs.
