Choosing an agency and a recruiter

Choosing an agency and a recruiter

Whether you work with Weatherby Healthcare or another locum tenens agency, be sure to choose an agency that has the resources you need to support you in finding and completing your assignments.

A quality locums agency should offer enough job opportunities to give you:

  • Your pick of assignments
  • The flexibility to work as much or as little as you want

It’s also important to find a recruiter or consultant:

  • You feel comfortable working with
  • You’re confident you can build a long-term relationship with
  • Who will understand your needs and put your best interests first

Pro tip: Proactively set communication preferences and expectations. Let your consultant or recruiter know how often you want to be contacted, your preferred communication method (text, email, or phone), and the best time of day to reach you.
