Marketware’s Innovative Approach to Physician Recruitment
Recruiting qualified physicians requires a specialized approach. Physician candidates have unique qualifications, licensing requirements, and career considerations that set them apart from other professional roles.

Marketware’s platform allows recruiters to create comprehensive physician profiles, templated recruiting workflows, and automated activities. These features work together to help you build your candidate database and manage your providers effectively so that you can find the best fit for your open practice opportunities.
So, how can Marketware’s Physician Recruitment Platform benefit your active recruiting process over others? Let’s get into it.

What is a Recruitment Workflow?
Recruitment workflows are a defined process consisting of stages used to track the necessary activities for finding your next hire. It should outline the steps involved in sourcing, screening, interviewing, contracting, and initiating onboarding for a particular role.
Benefits of Implementing Recruitment Workflows
Implementing a structured recruitment workflow allows you to revisit the stages of the process, confirm which activities need to be completed, and act as a timeline for task completion as candidates move through each stage.
Consistent Process
Workflows ensure a standardized approach to recruitment, reducing the risk of inconsistencies or oversights.
Improved Efficiency
By automating certain tasks and providing a clear roadmap, workflows can streamline the recruitment process and save time.
Better Candidate Experience
Workflows help maintain clear communication with candidates, keeping them informed and engaged throughout the process.
Enhanced Reporting
Workflows provide valuable data and analytics, allowing organizations to track key metrics, identify bottlenecks, and make data-driven decisions.

Key Recruitment Workflow Features
Custom Workflow Templates
Recruitment workflows can be customized to fit the unique needs of an organization or specific job roles. Templates can be created and modified to include the necessary stages, activities, and decision points relevant to the hiring process. This flexibility allows teams to adapt workflows as needed.
Account settings allow users to create custom workflow templates. Practice opportunities are copied from these templates to manage updates in one place. Since much may not change from position to position, having the same backbone for each practice opportunity allows for consistent tracking. Individual practice opportunities, however, can be updated ad hoc as needed.

Recruit Specific Automated Activities
In each stage of a workflow, a number of activities must be completed. This could include tracking residency or fellowship programs, filtering qualified leads, or navigating candidates in a requisition. Our platform offers a variety of recruit-specific activity types as well as the option to customize a list of activity types to match your organization’s preferences.
Along with to-dos, our platform enables you to track interviews, offers sent, candidate responses, or whether an offer was accepted, declined, or rescinded. These data points allow for more granular tracking when reporting where candidates fall in the workflow.
Stage Mapping for Candidate & Recruiting Status
Identify the hierarchy of a workflow by mapping out stages for a specific status including new, qualified, in progress, and passive. These stages tie directly to the candidate and recruiting status so no matter where a profile is viewed, you can understand where they are in the recruitment process.
Marking a candidate as inactive will also mark their recruiting status as inactive, noting reasons why they were not the right fit from the pick list of inactive reasons and the option to add more detail.
Once a candidate is contracted, this too will update the recruiting status to alert other recruiters that this person is no longer available as a potential lead for another open requisition.
