Questions to ask any recruiting provider
Evaluate the provider against your actual role and hospital requirements. Request clear answers and written terms rather than relying on a generic ranking.
- Who sources candidates and what screening is performed?
- What will our practice need to do during the search?
- What becomes payable if the search does not result in a hire?
Prepare the role brief
Write down the information a candidate needs to evaluate the position before the search begins.
- Specify overnight, weekend and holiday coverage.
- Explain triage, critical-care capability and referral escalation.
- Describe technician staffing, handovers and schedule recovery.
Plan the work location in Aurora.
Aurora spans Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties. A south Aurora workplace and a hospital in the separate City of Centennial need their own addresses and site schedules. This site focuses on Aurora appointments rather than using Denver as the default location.
For an Aurora search, establish the hospital, county and clinical schedule first. A broad Denver-area label can hide a different workplace; identify any Centennial rotation and the resources available at each facility.
Review Aurora-area recruiting coverage →Local context for this role
For a south Aurora emergency post, specify the evening and weekend pattern, support team, backup and handover. Any Centennial travel should be separately agreed rather than implied by a regional title.
Plan Colorado credential checks before the start date.
Colorado licenses veterinarians through the State Board of Veterinary Medicine within the Department of Regulatory Agencies, and veterinary technicians are registered through the same Division. Assign a person to verify license status and the expiration date, record the verification date and resolve questions with the Division. Check any additional specialty credentials required by the employer with the issuing organization.
