Q: How is NewMed Careers different from other staffing agencies?
A: We focus on building strong relationships with both employers and candidates. Our process includes thorough candidate screening, personalized matching, and ongoing support. Unlike many agencies, we emphasize long-term success and transparency rather than quick placements.

Q: How quickly can you provide qualified candidates?
A: We’re actively growing our candidate pool and employer partnerships. Once we understand your specific needs, we work diligently to match you with qualified candidates as soon as they’re available.

Q: Do you only work with certified candidates?

A: We prioritize certified candidates to meet employer standards, but we also engage with motivated candidates currently pursuing their certification. This helps us build a strong talent pipeline, giving you access to qualified individuals ready now as well as those preparing to enter the field soon. 

Q: Do I have to meet with someone to get started?

A: No, there’s no mandatory meeting or phone call to start working with us. You can simply submit your candidate request through our easy online form. Once we receive your request, we’ll give you a quick call or message—whichever you prefer—to confirm we got it and discuss your communication preferences. 

Q: Is there a way to stay updated on candidates and industry news?
A: Yes! Employers can join our free newsletter to receive the latest candidate updates, hiring tips, and healthcare workforce insights. It’s a simple way to stay connected without any obligations.

Q: Why do I only see limited company or candidate information on the resume previews?
A: Great question. To protect the privacy of our candidates and maintain professionalism, we only share general resume summaries and a candidate photo in our newsletter. Full resume access — including past employer names and contact details — is granted after a partnership agreement is completed.

Q: Why do you use Google Docs? Is it secure?

A: We use Google Docs to make candidate information easy to preview — no logins, downloads, or complicated portals required. Google’s built-in security features (including restricted access, permission controls, and encryption) help keep sensitive data protected. Candidate details are limited in public view, and full access is only granted after a partnership agreement.

Q: How does payment work once we sign the partnership agreement?
A: Once your recruiting agreement is signed, we’ll send a retainer invoice along with a secure payment link to complete the transaction. After a candidate is successfully hired, you’ll receive a follow-up invoice 14 days later for the placement fee — simple, transparent, and built around direct-hire success.

Q: Why is direct hire better than temp staffing?
 

A: Direct hire comes with several advantages — especially when building a reliable clinical team:

• ✅ Commitment from day one: Direct hires are more invested in your company culture and long-term goals.
  
  

• ✅ Reduced turnover: Candidates seeking full-time, permanent roles are less likely to "job hop" or burn out.
  
  

• ✅ Better onboarding outcomes: You’re able to train and manage them from the start — no middle layer.
  
  

• ✅ Cost-effective long term: While temp staffing may seem flexible, direct hire reduces ongoing agency fees.
  
  

• ✅ Real relationships: You build trust with team members who see your clinic as their professional home.

Q: What’s the difference between direct hire and non-direct hire?
A:

• Direct Hire means the candidate is placed on your company’s payroll from day one. They’re your employee — not ours — and you maintain full control over their onboarding, training, and employment terms.
  
  

• Non-Direct Hire typically involves temporary staffing, where the candidate remains on the agency’s payroll and is “leased” to you for a set period.
