Isn't Job Searching Too Personal To Have An Agent Do It?

This is a question I sometimes hear mumbled when I discuss what I do with others. They wonder if the job search process might be too personal to have someone else involved in it, let alone take the reigns and head it up. And I always say, "yes, physician job searching is certainly very personal. But that is where our strengths come in." The bottom line is that physicians don't want to embark on their job search all on their own. When done properly, it's too time consuming and burdensome, and involves too many tedious tasks. Not to mention, physicians understand that a physician agent has the experience necessary to put the physician on a level playing field with the employers in terms of getting the benefits, salary, and other forms of compensation they deserve.  After all, physician agents have experience with negotiating contract terms and they understand the various physician compensation models and how to make sure physicians get the best deal out of their next employment arrangement.

So while the job search process is, of course, highly personal, we make it our duty to ensure we know all about what you want out of your next job. We talk with you to find out what sort of practice you envision yourself having, in what part of the country you would like it to be, and what aspects of life outside of work are important to you and your family. Of course we don't stop at that- we gain a thorough understanding of what details you expect from your employment- be that your physician salary, particular benefits, time away from work, and any other special features you would like. While some clients have already been contacted by potential employers or have heard about possible job openings from colleagues, we not only assist you in pursuing those jobs, but we also go a step farther. We help you explore all other potential jobs so that you can rest easy knowing all viable options have been unveiled and you are not missing out on a job that may be a better match for you. In addition to seeking out all potential physician employment options, we follow through on every critical step of the physician job search process- from keeping in touch with potential employers and scheduling your interviews, to providing a detailed legal analysis of all contract offers you receive and suggesting favorable changes.

To learn more about how we can assist you in this very personal, and important process, contact Leigh Ann at 317-989-4833 or loneill@lauthoneill.com.
